DeMarcus Cousins and Kemba Walker will both hit free agency this summer, although according to Steve Kyler of Basketball Insiders, Walker is the man generating the most interest:

All things being equal -- Not sure there will be much of a market for DeMarcus (Cousins)... as for Kemba (Walker). I know the Magic, Pacers, Knicks, and Lakers have an interest... Charlotte still wants him and can now Supermax him.

Walker has spent his entire career with the Charlotte Hornets, and he has become an established All-Star over the past few years. The 29-year-old point guard averaged a career-high 25.6 points during the 18/19 season, also contributing 5.9 assists and 4.4 rebounds per game.

Last week, Walker was named to the All-NBA third team, which means that he is now eligible for a "supermax" extension with the Hornets this summer.
