Clippers Trade Up For Keon Johnson
3 years agoThe Los Angeles Clippers have traded up in the 2021 NBA Draft, acquiring New York's No. 21 pick and using it on Tennessee wing Keon Johnson. Johnson is a great athlete who averaged 1.1 steals per game last year and can block shots as well. Defense is how he'll make his living in the NBA, though his athleticism also converts to his offensive game when it comes to transition. He's a raw player on that end however and will need a lot of work still to become a solid offensive player in the half-court. It's hard to see how Johnson gets early minutes here.
