HEAT.com’s player spotlight for this past week features James Johnson.
While Johnson has provided a spark off the bench all season for Miami, he really impacted the team over its last four thanks to his versatility. In fact, the 29-year-old played quite a bit of point-center throughout the week, as Coach Spo went small on a number of occasions.
Because of that, Johnson was integral in victories over the Wizards and Pacers, especially down the stretch. In both games, he made good decisions with the ball in his hands and continued to show fancy footwork on his way to the rack.
