Not gonna link it cause it's on TOS... but I must say, I enjoy his videos, he seems very humble, and very eager to succeed. I have not followed an individual as much as I follow this kid. I'm really hoping his game translates to college.

I also saw that Sanders said Nigel Johnson is a high flyer and the 3 best dunkers are Sanders, Johnson and Daniels. I did not know Johnson was a high jumper. That means next year we'll have another 3 fast, super athletic guards with Sanders, Johnson and Parker.

Question for BK........I know you have seen Johnson play in practice and even though he is not playing this year, what do you think about his overall game.?

Nigel has really stood out to me in practice. It's a shame he's not eligible immediately.

At times, he looks like the best player we have. Quick, aggressive, and a nice offensive game. He will be a wonderful addition on the floor next season.

His more immediate impact will be as a practice influence. He goes hard all the time, and that pushes his teammates.

I've heard comparisons to Myles Mack, and that sort of rings true, but Nigel is a bit taller and plays with reckless abandon. Myles always struck me as a more structured player.

Thanks Bk. Can't wait for Kwe and Nigel to play with Corey and DeShawn next season. It would be our best chance at the NCAA tourney in a long time.

Yes, it would be nice to have Johnson. But, even in practice he will earn his keep by going head to head with Sanders to help make them both better.
