Chester Walker (born February 22, 1940) is an American former professional basketball player. In the NBA, he was a seven-time All-Star, and helped lead the 1967 Philadelphia 76ers to an NBA championship.
Born in Bethlehem, Mississippi,[1] Walker played high school basketball for the Benton Harbor High School boys basketball team. He graduated from Bradley University in 1962 as the school's all-time leading scorer. The Bradley Braves[2] won the NIT Championship in 1957 and 1960. Walker's speed and agility on the court earned him the nickname "Chet the Jet."
