The Draft Express folks zero in on the plusses and minuses regarding the NBA draft status of Stanley Johnson. He will bring a plethora of positives to any team taking him but there is a surprising negative considering he is 6-foot-8 and 240:
"...Johnson was downright dreadful as a finisher around the basket as a freshman, hitting just 40% of his half-court shot attempts inside the paint this season, one of the worst rates among any prospect in our Top-100.
