Former Arizona standout thrives in new role with hometown Lakers
| Quote: | “People forget that he was a top-10 pick in our league and he’s only 25 years old,” LeBron James said of Johnson in a January postgame news conference.
“He’s a guy that’s hungry and a guy that wants to go out and prove he belongs in the NBA.” |

If he works obsessively on his 3 this summer and shoots ~35% for us next year that will be an absolute game-changer.

| Stanley with a catch and shoot jumpshot = NBA rotation player on a good team. |

Yes.
Unfortunately one can say that (or similar) about a myriad of borderline players that fill NBA benches and/or exit the NBA, I hope it happens but won't count on it. |

Lakers' offseason Day 31. Stanley Johnson is seemingly following in Alex Caruso’s footsteps as he too is training with shooting coach Jordan Lawley this offseason to improve his shooting. That'a all folks!

I hope Wenyen Gabriel and Austin Reaves do something similar. |
