Expert Analysis
Paul Hernandez | Prep Hoops Scout
The 5-foot-11 point guard controls the pace of the game, has the moves to create his own scoring opportunities, and is an underrated on-ball perimeter defender that makes life tough for opposing guards. Johnson is coming off a great month of June with the Titans, followed by a productive July with Team Rampage, and has kept that level of play up throughout the Fall portion of the basketball calendar, highlighted by a 12 point and 6 assist game in a win over El Capitan of Merced. Johnson keeps the ball on a string to survey the floor, has a tight handle on the ball to secure it from defenders reaching in, has the court vision to find players diving to the basket out of the pick and roll action, to open players off the drive and kick pass, cross court to open shooters, and up the court to teammates ahead of the defense. Johnson has shifty moves, using the crossover combos, hesitation, fadeaway, and spin-move to get space from his defender, is accurate with the jumper with great body control to connect on shots from the mid-range to the 3-point line, and is a creative scorer around the basket with the euro-step, up-and-under, and reverse lay-ups to evade shot-blockers. He has active hands, good lateral movement, and the timing to deflect passes or jump passing lanes, and gets into his opponents dribbling space to create turnovers.
