Trey Johnson Says He's Ready and Waiting for an NBA Call-Up

Filed under: NBA D-League, Bakersfield Jam

Trey Johnson has accomplished quite a bit this season, his fourth playing for the NBA D-League's Bakersfield Jam, as he's leading the league in scoring, drastically improved his shooting percentages and has his team on pace for the best record in club history.

Johnson, a 6-foot-5 combo-guard who played collegiate ball at Jackson State, is averaging 25.3 points in 22 games this season and shooting over 50 percent from the field. He's also added 4.3 rebounds and 4.0 assists to complement his scoring while helping the Jam to a 13-9 record after the team finished just 17-33 last season.

His play this season has also garnered him looks from all around the NBA. Most recently, Johnson said he met with Mike Born, the Portland Trail Blazers' director of NBA scouting, at the D-League Showcase in South Padre Island, Texas, this past week.
