yeah, he holds the fastest time in the 40yd dash at the combine and had a 2,000yd season a few years ago. Should be great in transition.

Nah, you're thinking of the wrong Chris Johnson. This Chris Johnson had a .263/.292/10HR/58 RBI line last season for the Braves. He'd be a solid platoon bat when facing a lefty, though.

I think you guys are both wrong. Chris Johnson's the guy who sells donuts at my work. From the small talk that I've made with him (Inside info!) he's been working on his jumper.

I'm assuming this is Dayton spot up shooter Chris Johnson and not LSU beanpole Chris Johnson. Hope he makes some shots for us. This is a tryout for the famous "2 year deal" that is actually just a rest of season + ng'd year deal but which makes everybody lose their minds anyway.

Chris Johnson is 24. Little dog can't hit the three though, he's pretty much just got the nice elbow jumper.

He has the required wingspan to make the roster. 6-3.5 in shoes, 6-11 wingspan.

http://www.draftexpress.com/profile/Chr ... 641/stats/

Around 36.5% from 3 in his recent D-League stints and mid to high 30's in college from 3, so decent shooter but not a top level guy there.

6'3.5 without shoes, so just about 6'5 with shoes. Made 64% of his 2's. I would have preferred signing Elliot Williams, but I can't criticize giving this Chris Johnson a look.
