2010 NBA Draft Scouting Report: Armon Johnson
Position: Point Guard
Size: 6-3, 195
School: Nevada, Junior
Strengths:
Weaknesses:
Summary: Despite a weak class of point guards, Johnson is still a bubble first-round pick. He is at his best when attacking the basket and would thrive in an up-tempo offense. If he were a more consistent outside shooter, Johnson would likely be a first-round lock. Instead, he may fall into the second round and regret his decision to leave school early.
Player Comparison: Marcus Banks. Coming out of college, Banks was known more for his speed and athleticism as a point guard, but never for his ability to shoot the basketball. Johnson is in the same mold that he is incredibly quick off the bounce, at times showing a Rajon Rando-like ability to get into the lane. If Johnson can develop a more consistent outside shot, he should have a more successful professional career than Banks.
