Lakers Pre-Draft Workout: Western Kentucky Forward Justin Johnson Patterns Game After Warriors’ Draymond Green

The Los Angeles Lakers welcomed another group of prospects to the UCLA Health Training Center for pre-draft workouts.

An intriguing prospect is Justin Johnson, who played all four seasons at Western Kentucky. While the 22-year-old nearly averaged a double-double during his junior and senior years, he developed into a legitimate 3-point shooter.

After shooting 11.1 percent on 0.3 attempts from beyond the arc in his sophomore year, Johnson eventually became a 41.
