About Larry
Expert Analysis
Michael Roth | Prep Hoops Scout
Johnson was dominant last season and McNease was able to hold onto him this season as Johnson could be one of the top mid-major players in all of college basketball. A dominant performance just completely taking over the game in multiple areas, Johnson was making plays in transition, the half-court, as a slasher, perimeter shot-maker and as a distributor. Being able to impact the game in so many ways was very impressive and Johnson should have McNease in contention as a potential Cinderella with their depth of talent.

Larry exhibited his athleticism, strength, and shooting ability in Southern California Academy’s wins over the Storm Hoopers (Owyhee HS) and Toros Select (Arbor View HS). He was a nightmare in transition for opponents who had real difficulty dealing with Johnson’s strength and athleticism as he repeatedly finished above the rim or simply leapt high enough to finish over whoever was trying to stop him.

is a 6’4″ basketball player from Huntington Prep High School. He is a matchup nightmare for opposing coaches. Larry is a two-way player that can score the ball and guard the opposing team’s best player. His tenacity and aggressiveness on the court are what sets him apart. He is a high riser that can jump out of the gym but also has the soft touch to finish around the rim. He can shoot it from long range, has a mid-range pull up game and can catch and shoot the ball off screens. Larry will definitely be a player to watch in the upcoming season.
