Johnny Juzang Scouting Report

4/16/2021

In my recent Davion Mitchell scouting breakdown, I wrote about being cognizant of late-risers through March Madness. Johnny Juzang is the perfect example this year. Sure, he had some big moments in the NCAA Tournament and helped carry the offense for an underdog UCLA team that advanced to the Final Four. But nothing about Juzang's time in March was incredibly efficient, nor stood out in a more impactful way than his regular season: he just took more shots.

The bar might have been low for those on a national level who had last seen Juzang play at Kentucky, where he underwhelmed, leading to his transfer. Expectations were quite high in Lexington, and this version of Juzang still might not have lived up to all that hype. 

With strong athletic questions about who and how he guards, if he can ever beat an NBA defender off the bounce and the need to still add consistency as a help defender, Juzang isn't climbing up my draft boards. He's been in the mid-70s or 80s on my spots, a number that may increase solely because guys above him elect to return to school. He has two-way potential, but wouldn't be worth drafting unless a team is in dire need of investment in a shooting specialist and believes that he'll increase his efficiency in that role at the next level.
