BIOGRAPHYJohnson was selected by the Pistons with the 56th pick of the 2005 NBA Draft. He is listed at 6'9" and 210 lbs but has reportedly grown to 6'11" since being drafted. Known for his athleticism, he was drafted straight out of Westchester High School in Los Angeles, deciding to skip a collegiate career. He had committed to play at the University of Louisville. He is the last high school player to be selected in the NBA Draft, as the NBA instituted a rule prior to the 2006 Draft that requires American players to be at least one year removed from the graduation of their high school class to be eligible. Then-Pistons head coach Larry Brown commented that he thought Johnson will become a special player someday.
