How did Miami Heat forward James Johnson fair this season?

Last summer, the Miami Heat signed James Johnson to a four-year, $60 contract.

Now, with 2017-18 play having officially come to an end, fans are wondering if he proved his worth.

Coming into last year, the forward had already played for four different NBA teams. And while he showed flashes of brilliance, he was never quite able to level all the way up.

Still, president Pat Riley saw something he liked in the Wyoming-native. So after Dwyane Wade sought greener pastures and the whale in Kevin Durant wasn’t caught, he signed Johnson to an one-year deal.
