Johnson, 6-foot-6, led the SEC in scoring at 19.9 points per game and shot 40% on 3-pointers (224 attempts). His best game was an 39-point performance (hitting 7-of-11 3s) in an 86-81 overtime loss to Arkansas on Feb. 26. He was named SEC freshman of the year and second-team All-SEC.

Coming into college, he was ranked as the No. 5 player overall in the 2024 recruiting class by Rivals and the No. 3 shooting guard.

The Longhorns went 19-16 and 6-12 in conference play, getting into the NCAA tournament as one of the final eight teams. Johnson scored 23 points in a First Four loss to Xavier, leading to head coach Rodney Terry being fired after the season and replaced by Sean Miller.

Johnson is ranked as the No. 6 player on Yahoo Sports’ big board. NBA draft analyst Kevin O’Connor, has him going with the No. 8 selection in his latest mock draft, pending the draft order changing after the NBA Draft Lottery.

“Johnson is a clutch shot-maker who can catch fire from all over the floor, drilling step-backs and off-screen jumpers with ease,” O’Connor writes in his scouting report for Johnson. “But he needs to continue developing his point guard skills while also honing his shot selection and dramatically improving his defense.”

The 19-year-old is currently in Santa Barbara, California, to prepare for the draft combine (held May 11-18), according to ESPN.

“I’m a big basketball nerd, so I’m spending a lot of time watching film, both full games and individual players,” Johnson told ESPN’s Jonathan Givony.

The 2025 NBA Draft will be held June 25-26 in New York.
