Walker's minutes NC 8.8/AU 25.6
Walker's points. NC 4.4/AU 11.4
Walker's rebounds NC 3.3/AU 8.1
Yes, NC got hot at the right time and made it to the Championship Game as an #8 seed where Auburn bowed out early as a #2 seed. By this time Kessler had secured the Naismith Defensive POY Award and leaped up everyone's draft boards. What would WK's numbers look like, with Bacot and Manek, had he stayed in Chapel Hill?
I doubt if there is one ounce of regret or second guessing by Walker, or any Kessler for that matter, he had a great season at Auburn.
