Summary:

Alize Johnson is an unheralded small-school prospect that had a solid junior season this past year.  He is an athletic, combination forward that can score in a variety of ways, and he is an unselfish player that has good court vision for a player his size.​

He will need to add strength to be able to handle stronger players defensively and show teams that he can extend his range to past the NBA three-point line, but Johnson is an intriguing talent that could potentially be a first round pick in 2018.
