Maybe Tyler Johnson was worth that $50 million offer sheet after all.
Four years after the Nets gave him a $50 million offer sheet, which the Heat matched a few days later, Johnson finally donned a Brooklyn jersey and looked like the guy Sean Marks liked so much back in July 2016.
In his first game action since he played for the Suns on February 2, the 6’4” shooting guard scored 17 points and sank 3-of-5 attempts from 3-point range. At the end of the game, with the Spurs closing in and even taking the lead, Johnson scored eight points on back-to-back three’s with two and a half left, then hit a pull-up jumper that put the Nets up by four with a minute and a half left.
