Temple produced this 6-foot-6 forward who carved out a full decade in the NBA, from 1972 to 1982, suiting up for Portland, the New Orleans Jazz, Kansas City, Atlanta, Chicago, and Philadelphia while averaging 7.7 points for his career. His Jazz season came in 1974-75, the franchise's very first year.
Johnson's second act stayed close to home and to sport: he became director of athletics at the Community College of Philadelphia, a post he held until his retirement in 2011.
HOW HE CAME & WENTThe Jazz took him from Portland in the 1974 expansion draft, and traded him with Rick Adelman to Kansas City for Nate Williams in February 1975.
