Muted role continues Sunday Walker had five points (2-3 FG, 1-1 3Pt), one rebound and one assist across four minutes during Sunday's 134-109 win over the Rockets.
Impact Walker logged just four minutes in the win, continuing what has been a lean couple of months. After starting out the season playing a key role for the Lakers, Walker has basically fallen out of the rotation. With their key players healthy, as well as a few savvy additions at the trade deadline, Walker has tumbled down the pecking order. There is no reason to look at him outside of the deepest leagues.

Re-emerges with 20 points Walker registered 20 points (7-12 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 2-4 FT), four rebounds and three steals across 24 minutes during Friday's 116-111 victory over the Thunder.
Impact Prior to Friday, Walker had been completely out of the rotation with three straight DNPs, but he was called upon against OKC in a critical contest for the Lakers' playoff aspirations. Walker responded with his best game of the month, finishing third on the team in scoring and leading Los Angeles with four makes from three-point range. Given recent trends, it's hard to know if this contest was an aberration, but Walker at least proved that he can still be an offensive factor if given the opportunity.

Posts 21 points Tuesday Walker ended with 21 points (7-15 FG, 5-10 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds, one assist and one block in 23 minutes during Tuesday's 121-109 loss to the Grizzlies.
Impact Walker had almost completely fallen out of the rotation coming into Tuesday, averaging only 5.7 minutes over his previous three games. He was called upon for offense off the bench against Memphis, however, and responded with his highest scoring output since mid-December. Walker wasn't shy about shooting the ball in the loss, putting up 15 field-goal attempts -- including 10 triples -- in just 23 minutes. He was a key part of the team's offense early in the campaign but fell off due to a lengthy injury absence and Los Angeles' flurry of mid-season acquisitions. With LeBron James (foot) expected to miss multiple weeks, it's possible Walker can ride his strong effort Tuesday to a reentry into the team's game plan.

Plays three minutes in win Walker closed with four points (2-4 FG, 0-2 3Pt) and one block in three minutes during Wednesday's 120-102 win over the Pelicans.
Impact After playing at least 15 minutes in each of his last nine appearances, Walker's playing time decreased significantly in Wednesday's comfortable victory as the Lakers continue to incorporate their acquisitions from the trade deadline. The 24-year-old should continue to have chances to contribute when the Lakers deal with injuries, but his fantasy upside is limited when the team is healthy.
