Expert Analysis
Robbie Hodin | Prep Hoops Scout
Johnson has developed into one of my favorite players in the entire region to watch. The 5-foot-10 guard comes off the bench for an incredibly talented Winchendon squad, and it’s quite impressive what he’s able to do at his height against scholarship guards. He’s almost always the quickest player on the court and has the utmost confidence in his ability to handle the ball and get two feet in the paint (I don’t blame him). He makes excellent decisions for himself and his teammates, and he’s an electric defender on that end of the floor, too. His size will limit his recruitment, but boy is Johnson fun to watch.

I loved how he changed the complexion of the second half, creating turnovers, timing rebounds. He is as tough as I have seen, getting great paint touches, arduous made hoops especially off hand. The kid scores in a variety of ways runners, mid-range, deep (catch/shoot, in transition). I would expect his rercuitment to heat up. If he continues to play like I saw he is more than capable of getting tons of D2/D3 offers. I loved his heart and determination!

I continue to be wow’d by Johnson every time I watch him play. Despite the level of talent at Winchendon this season, it’s just too hard to keep the 5-foot-10 guard off the floor for too long because he brings so much on both ends. Offensively, he’s absurdly confident and handles the rock supremely well, so he can run your offense quite seamlessly by getting people involved but also finding spots to attack. Defensively, he’s lightning quick and is super pesky, so he’s frustrating to go against for bigger guards. Johnson’s size will probably limit his recruitment, but coaches should be keeping tabs on him.

Wow, Johnson is fun to watch. The NMH Tip-Off was the first time I’ve ever seen him play, and I can assure you it won’t be my last. The 5-foot-10 point guard is ridiculously quick with the rock in his hands and looks like he’s been dribbling the thing since he was a toddler. He makes live-dribble, one-handed passes in his sleep with both his right and left hand, and he has some pretty special passing vision. He’s also able to shoot it and finish with contact, though. He has the upmost confidence in his game and it’s going to take him a long way. Heck of a player.
