FAYETTEVILLE — Joe Johnson might never stop playing basketball.
After starring at Little Rock Central and the University of Arkansas, the 6-7 Johnson played in the NBA for 17 years through the 2017-18 season.
In the summer of 2019, Johnson played in the BIG3 3-on-3 league and led his team, the Triplets, to the championship while earning MVP honors.
Then this summer Johnson, 39, played in The Basketball Tournament (TBT) for Overseas Elite.
“Yes Joe Johnson can get 20 points in his sleep in the NBA right now on a winning team if he wanted,” Dwyane Wade, a 13-time NBA All-Star guard, tweeted during the TBT.
