The performance of the Lakers 2 team is a mess. Will the former high-couped lottery show be in the Japanese League?

Japanese B League club Nagasaki Velca officially announced that the team has signed former NBA player Stanley Johnson, who will also appear in the Japanese league for the first time in the new season.

Johnson was born in May 1996 and is 29 years old, 198cm tall and weighs 110kg. He was the high-pick lottery pick in the 8th pick in the first round of the 2015 NBA Draft. In the NBA, Johnson has played for the Detroit Pistons, the New Orleans Pelicans, the Toronto Raptors, the Los Angeles Lakers and the San Antonio Spurs. He has made 449 appearances in the NBA regular season, averaging 19.8 minutes per game, averaging 6.2 points, 3.1 rebounds, 1.5 assists, 0.9 steals and 0.2 blocks, and 1.1 turnovers and 1.9 fouls. He has shot 39.1% from the field, 30.5% from three-point shooting percentage and 74.8% from free throws. Johnson's performance in the NBA is not ideal, his potential is not fully utilized, and his performance on the offensive end is also very disappointing. In recent seasons, Johnson's development in the NBA has been very unsatisfactory and it is difficult for him to get a stable job.

Johnson first played for the Turkish League giant Effith, who played 23 times in the European arena, with averaging 9.9 minutes per game, with averaging 3 points, 1.5 rebounds, 0.4 assists, 0.3 steals and 0.1 blocks, 0.4 turnovers and 1.2 fouls, with a shooting percentage of 41%, a three-point shooting percentage of 31.4%, and a free throw shooting percentage of 69.2%. Because his performance was really bad, Johnson had to leave the European arena early and join the Lakers' NBA Development League team, the South Bay Lakers. In the NBA Development League last season, Johnson made a total of 17 appearances, averaging 33.5 minutes per game, averaging 15.2 points, 6.6 rebounds, 4.6 assists, 1.1 steals and 0.4 blocks, and 3.1 turnovers and 2.2 fouls. His shooting percentage was 41.3%, three-point shooting percentage was 30.2%, and his free throw shooting percentage was 70.6%. Although Johnson is a draft pick and is considered to have great talent and potential, his progress in the NBA is very limited, and his performance cannot meet everyone's expectations, and his performance is also a very disappointing level. His performance in the European arena was a mess last season. His performance after returning to the NBA Development League are also ups and downs, which further affected his market conditions. Johnson should be a versatile player with both offense and defense, but it seems that he is also facing a huge crisis now. Now he can only appear in the Japanese league, which is really a worrying thing.
