Morez Johnson

Draft Notes

A powerfully built post player with good footwork, soft hands and a good touch around the rim. Can play bully-ball and move defenders down low.

Has really good quickness and can face up and take his man off the dribble. Is a powerful post player but has good hops and some finesse as well.

Is a standout defender who really gets after it on the defensive end. Can guard taller players and move his feet on perimeter. Is a very high energy player who has a major impact on the defensive end.

Seems to be flying too far under the radar (although now people are catching up to how good he is).
