Selected by Dallas
Johnson was selected by the Mavericks with the No. 9 overall pick in the 2026 NBA Draft.
ANALYSIS
Johnson is a versatile defender and rim runner who posted averages of 13.1 points, 7.3 rebounds, 1.2 assists and 1.1 blocks per game on 62/34/78 shooting splits during his sophomore season at Michigan. His offense is a work in progress, and he's a bit undersized for the center position. However, his grit and commitment to winning should endear him to the Mavericks' coaching staff, specifically new head coach Dusty May, who led Johnson and the Wolverines to a national title in 2025-26. While the 20-year-old may not be an immediate threat to overthrow Dereck Lively (foot), P.J. Washington or Daniel Gafford for a starting job, assuming they remain on the roster, it could happen sooner than expected, especially if there are injuries.
