Xavier Johnson

Former Indiana point guard Xavier Johnson received an invitation to participate in a prospect workout with the Indiana Pacers, as announced by the team on Twitter today.

https://twitter.com/Pacers/status/1801022411791294856?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1801022411791294856%7Ctwgr%5E39299947594adae4e03ae6a4b704a79a52c1b516%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.crimsonquarry.com%2F2024%2F6%2F12%2F24177346%2Findiana-mens-basketball-xavier-johnson-invited-to-pre-draft-workout-with-indiana-pacers

While many prognosticators may not project Johnson to be drafted, it’s encouraging to witness him seize this opportunity, especially considering his contributions to Indiana. Despite encountering challenges such as injuries and inconsistent roles during his college tenure, Johnson’s talent on the court merits recognition. In his final fully healthy season with Indiana, he showcased his abilities, averaging over 12 points per game while shooting an impressive 38.3% from beyond the arc.

Johnson played a pivotal role in Indiana’s success, particularly during their Big Ten Tournament run, which culminated in ending the team’s NCAA Tournament drought. He continued to display flashes of brilliance in his senior season, exemplified by standout performances like his 18-point, three-assist, turnover-free game against Ohio State in January.

Reflecting on fond memories, it’s worth noting that Johnson was spotted in Bloomington earlier today alongside some former teammates, underscoring the strong bonds within the Indiana basketball community.

As Johnson embarks on this new opportunity with the Pacers, his potential transition to the professional realm not only adds to the legacy of Hoosier basketball alumni but also presents an opportunity for him to showcase his skills and contribute meaningfully to an NBA franchise.
