It is safe to say that Atlanta Hawks rookie Jalen Johnson impressed the NBA world with his summer league performance. In fact, it was so good that he was named to the All-Summer League 1st team which is impressive for the 20th pick.
The best part about this is that Johnson was not just competing against his own rookie class. He was also competing against last season’s rookie class who did not get and summer league action last season. These guys have played a full NBA season and Johnson was better than a lot of them.
