Miami Heat Column: Tyler Johnson was clouded by unfair expectations

His time with Miami can be split between two distinct periods: the first two years in which he out-played low or nonexistent expectations, and the last two-and-a-half, in which he fell short of those unfair.

The former Fresno State Bulldog came to the Heat as an undrafted free agent in 2014. After playing with the Heat through summer league and training camp, he was one of the final roster cuts before the season. He signed on with Miami’s G-League affiliate in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, where he played 15 games before signing a 10-day contract with the Heat.
