Via ELLE Magazine: “When R&B singer #Marissa and four-time NBA All-Star #KembaWalker got married earlier this July, they chose the Conservatory at Blackberry Ridge in Trenton, Georgia, as their venue. Getting married in Georgia held special significance for the couple—most of Marissa’s family lives there, and it’s just a short trip from Kemba’s relatives in North Carolina. As such, the rehearsal dinner, ceremony, and reception all took place on the property.”
Walker was the ninth pick in the 2011 NBA Draft out of UConn.
During the 2019 season, he averaged a career-high 25.6 points per contest.
