It was a sign Rose’s ankle is getting closer, a sign how much Thibodeau still loves his former Bulls point guard and a sign that when
CLEVELAND — Point guard Kemba Walker was back in the starting lineup Monday and Derrick Rose was back on the road with the Knicks — a sign he’s coming along nicely. Rose was all smiles in a hallway outside the locker room at Rocket Mortgage Center and walking well before the Knicks’ 95-93 loss to

During the last Garden holiday matinee, Kemba Walker became a triple-double Christmas Day hero. On MLK Day, Walker was a spectator donning a bright-orange sweatshirt — his arthritic left knee appearing as solid as slush.

Walker, who is listed as questionable, has missed the last eight games with knee soreness after Knicks coach Tom Thibodeau may

Walker was shut down on New Year’s Eve after a back-to-back set in Minnesota and Detroit. Thibodeau didn’t rule out the possibility that even upon the Bronx native’s return,

No NBA player was feeling better on Christmas Day than Kemba Walker.
