Although the draft was over, the Pacers weren’t finished adding players to their pipeline on Thursday night, as the team signed Ohio State’s Duane Washington Jr., the nephew of five-time NBA Champion Derek Fisher, to a two-way contract, per ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski.
Johnson, who led the Buckeyes with 16.4 points on 41-37-83 shooting splits as a junior, boosted his draft stock enough at the G League Elite Camp in Chicago to be one of four participants among the 40-player showcase to earn an invitation to the NBA Draft Combine.
