Alexander Johnson Going Pro

Draft Express: DraftExpress and the St. Petersburg Times were informed Thursday that Florida State junior Alexander Johnson will be forfeiting his remaining college eligibility by hiring an agent.

Johnson realizes that it will be very difficult for him to considerably improve his draft stock next year as he’ll be turning 24 years old, and is likely taking a long hard look at the fact that this draft appears to be extremely weak at the power forward position in his projected range. With his NBA ready body, outstanding athleticism, excellent rebounding ability and intriguing raw skills facing the basket, Johnson will almost certainly find himself on an NBA roster next year regardless of where he is drafted.
