With Williams out, it put even more of the offensive load on Walker’s shoulders and Whitman’s defensive gameplan was centered around making life difficult for him throughout. Still, he was able to expose gaps or driving lanes off catches with quick rips where he attacked and got into the teeth of the defense. Walker faced multiple hands around the bucket on his attempts in the paint as the defense collapsed quickly and while it was a bit of a struggle to get into rhythm, the lead guard managed to score 13 points, nine of which came from beyond the arc. Defensively, Walker was active in passing lanes no matter if Walter Johnson was in man or zone.

Walker is a transfer from St. John’s Catholic Prep who has quickly asserted himself as one of the better guards in MoCo. He’s a downhill slasher who boasts a strong frame and uses it to embrace physicality on his way to the rim. He’s thrived in high ball screens or in transition where he can use his change-of-pace approach to hunt gaps and expose driving lanes with good burst off his back foot. He’s shown consistent touch on floaters from the middle of the paint and has progressed with his outside shooting results as defenses have changed their game plan against him to pack the paint. Walker is averaging 13.4 points and 3.7 assists per game.

Christian Walker Christian Walker 6'0" | PG Walter Johnson | 2026 MD is making the transfer over to Walter Johnson for his final season where he looks to have his best yet. Truly electrifying with the ball and has shown his skill as a playmaker. Doesn’t force many shots and will always look to set up his teammates for the basket. Very aware with how to use his body and shield off tough coverage. Reads the floor at a high level and makes plays for his teammates through pick-and-roll shifts, driving and kicking, or simple looks through the seams of the defense. Impressive guard that plays with grittiness and toughness mixed with the right amount of finesse. Christian also gets after it defensively and crashes the glass hard at the guard position.

Christian showed his explosiveness through 5 on 5 play. He ran the point well when faced with the task, reading the floor well and seeking out open teammates every game.
