2024 rankings were finalized on 6/25/24.

Height: 6-7
Weight: 225
College: Arizona
Classification: Fifth-Year Senior
Birthdate: 6/23/2001

2024 Top 100 Prospect Rank: 57
Projected Draft Range: 2nd Round to Undrafted

Pros:

Fairly solid shooter
Can post up smaller players
Excels at scoring on off-ball motion plays
Decent playmaker for his size
Decent rebounder for his size
Solid athlete
Solid motor

Cons:

Needs to improve his free throw shooting
May struggle to create his own shot consistently
Can be reluctant to take outside shots
Old for a draft prospect, may have limited upside
May not be outstanding at any one particular skill

Summary:

Keshad Johnson is a strong, physical forward that plays with a very good motor, and he helped lead San Diego State to get to the 2023 National Championship game. He then transferred to Arizona and had a very good season, where he significantly improved his outside shot, and his skill set, intangibles, and ability to make plays could enable him to be a solid role player in the NBA.
