17. Antoine Walker

Antoine Walker, who is commonly known as Toine and Cyber Toine, is one of several Chicago natives to win at least one NBA championship title during his professional playing career.

Other notable accolades include one All-Rookie Team selection and three All-Star Team nods.

Walker made his NBA debut with the Boston Celtics in November of 1996. He made the most of his opportunities early on allowing him to become a serviceable veteran for many years.

During the span of his 13-year career, Walker played for several teams, including the Atlanta Hawks, Dallas Mavericks, Miami Heat and the Minnesota Timberwolves.

Walker was a force to be reckoned with when it came to rebounding. He ranked among the top 20 in defensive rebounds for six seasons. In addition, Walker ranked among the top 20 in offensive rebounds for two seasons. This does not mean that Walker was a big man of singular talents. He could get buckets whenever he wanted for the most part. Walker ranked among the top 20 in points for four seasons.

Walker was born in Chicago. He went to high school at Mount Carmel High School in Chicago and attended college at the University of Kentucky in Lexington, Kentucky.

Walker has a 1.5% chance of getting inducted as a player into the Hall of Fame.
