Does anyone know if either of them have been activated to the 12 man roster? Thats all that matters to me right now.

Otherwise they were just brought up to get evaluated.

Ainge mentioned they brought up Walker and Giddens because they are both banged up and he wants them work with with trainers next week when they will be home for about a week.  So I don't expect Walker to play although I'd like to see him thrown in there. 

That was said by JBcat on another thread...
