Walker Flowing Through Changes

It could be a case of third-time lucky for Brisbane import Devondrick Walker. An elite combo guard/forward, his time in the NBL so far has been beset by injuries and a lack of continuity – but in NBL23, the 30-year-old is back and ready to fire.
Originally signing for the Perth Wildcats way back in 2017, a pre-season foot injury meant Walker had to wait until 2020 to step out onto an NBL floor – however, his league debut came in South East Melbourne colours, incidentally against the Wildcats.
After an exceptional season in NBL1 West with Rockingham in which he won League MVP, Finals MVP, the Scoring Title and All-Star Five honours, Walker has taken his talents to Queensland to fill the Bullets’ high-profile final import slot.

During his time with the NBL1 West Rockingham Flames, Walker was invited to train with his former team in the Wildcats – an opportunity that helped him prove to both himself and league scouts that he could still be a deadly player at the highest level.
Despite returning to Australia to play with the Flames in the recent NBL1 campaign, Walker has had a career so far that’s taken him on a journey across the globe.
