As we’ve said before, until he proves otherwise, Jalen Johnson’s middle name is Risk. He was in Sacramento and was asked about “red flags” associated with his draft prospects. Clearly he’s aware of it and not happy about it. Here’s what he said:
“Those really aren’t red flags. People say a lot of things about me, but they say those things without knowing me. … I don’t like seeing that stuff and I know my parents see that stuff, and I know it hurts them, because at the end of the day these people are making judgments without knowing me, without speaking to me, without saying a word to me.
