For the past few seasons, it’s been easy to forget that Wes Johnson is in the league at all. For being a complete draft bust whose only use has been to be a warm body on the court that can’t score and doesn’t look to score (his points per 36 being under ten reflects that),…

Wes Johnson 17 Points Full Highlights (1/20/2018)
Allow me to reminisce for a bit. Let me take you back to the year 2013. Wes Johnson is playing for the Suns. He starts the season mostly riding the pine, getting DNP’s interspersed with bursts of eight or ten minutes of playing time. He’s only 25 years old, still on his rookie deal, but…

In case you were wondering, no, I did not forget to put “Career High” in the title of this video. Apparently Wes Johnson scored 29 points his rookie year, somehow, even though he was even then a huge bust, and I even made highlights of him scoring 27 with the Lakers. That vid got only…

Wes Johnson’s final line last night: 15 points on 6-of-10 shooting, 7 rebounds, 4 assists, 3 steals, and 4 blocks. The dude was four total stats away from having a damn five-by-five. Wes Johnson. Nearly a 5×5. Can you believe that? This is the guy who looked totally washed last season at the grand old…

“All he does is score.” Why would you say that about Wes Johnson? That doesn’t make sense in any possible interpretation of the phrase. Even if you consider strictly basketball, it’s pretty obvious that he doesn’t do all that much scoring, even when he manages to detach his posterior from the bench. In the interest…

You can sometimes tell that these national commentators don’t really know what’s going on. That’s fine, I guess. It’s hard to keep track of all the players, even I mess up sometimes. So I can forgive whoever it was for saying that Wes Johnson is a young player who is expected to get better. He…

Wes Johnson needs to be more assertive. He gets thirty minutes a contest but can’t even average 10 PPG, even though his only talent coming out of college was scoring. Kobe Bean taking all the shots is hindering Wes just like it’s hindering everybody else, but if Wayne Ellington is scoring almost as much as…

Wes Johnson entered the club with one purpose in mind: to locate a suitable honey and take her back to his place. Navigating through the crowds of partiers, he first went to the bar to get some liquid confidence in his system. A short time later, he was on the prowl. It didn’t take him…

In the midst of a career year, Wes Johnson is slowly improving his game to the point where he might not be as big a bust as I thought. In a theoretical scenario where Wes is able to maintain his current production and efficiency numbers over the course of several years, he would not be…

Who let Steve Nash out of the nursing home? He’s under strict orders not to play any more basketball. Under no circumstances is he to throw lobs to other basketball players. Somebody should guide Nash gently by the shoulder back to his bed. I’m sure he’s frightened and confused. Speaking of daring acts of escape,…
