"Tre Johnson's role on the Washington Wizards was never a mystery. He was taken No. 6 overall to score, score, and score some more. In the very early stages of his NBA career, he's done just that. Johnson has scored 16, 17, and 18 points in his first three games, shooting over 40 percent from the field in each of them, and already hitting 9 three-pointers."
"There are levels to Tre Johnson's scoring prowess. Literally, levels; he can score from all three of them, as they say, and he's shown off two of those levels so far. He looks comfortable in the midrange, and the near-40% 3-point shooting in college was always going to play in the NBA. Johnson has also already shown a willingness (and ability) to create offense on his own."
Tre Johnson scored 16, 17, and 18 points in his first three NBA games while shooting over 40 percent in each and making nine three-pointers. He was selected No. 6 overall to provide high-volume scoring and has shown ability to score at multiple levels, including the midrange and three-point range. Johnson has shown creation ability with just over half of his makes being assisted. He and Kyshawn George have started the season strongly, and Johnson's performance could accelerate the Wizards' rebuild even if rookie scoring does not immediately translate to more wins.
