Nick Johnson hardly got any mention for Pac-12 Player of the Year at the start of last season and look what happened.
Surprised at the lack of buzz nationally surrounding Arizona's Stanley Johnson. Could wind up being Pac-12's best player. Winner.

I’ve seen that form before in AAU tournaments. I can’t argue with that.
I'm in my zone my form is so rare man

Class of 2015 big man prospect Stephen Zimmerman from Las Vegas (Nev.) Bishop Gorman posted this photo late last night during his official visit. He must love McKale’s new look.

Chad Ford’s analysis of Stanley Johnson: Ranks him the No. 2 wing prospect behind Kansas’ Kelly Oubre and the No. 6 prospect overall out of 100.
“Johnson already has the body of a NBA veteran and plays with a toughness and motor that make him fun to watch. Johnson goes hard every night, but he must add a consistent perimeter game to be a star. That concern over his shooting ability means that some scouts have players like Kevon Looney and Mario Hezonja ranked higher. But if Johnson can put it all together this season? He could be a top-three draft pick.”Ranking the Top 10 wings for the 2015 NBA draft. KU's Kelly Oubre & Arizona's Stanley Johnson lead the way. http://t.co/bWyJZBAXYB (in)

Sean Miller coached Zimmerman this summer with the Team USA Under-18 team. They are just getting reacquainted.
