James Johnson Has Done A Little Bit Of Everything For Timberwolves

Timberwolves forward James Johnson played 222 games for the Heat from 2016 until this year’s trade deadline, the most he’s played for a single team in his career.

Johnson, an extremely fierce competitor who is literally nicknamed Bloodsport, returns to take on the Heat in Miami on Wednesday night.

During his three-plus seasons in Miami, Johnson started 79 of 222 games, averaging 10.3 points, 4.3 rebounds and 3.2 assists per game.

Johnson was part of a three-team trade that sent him to Minnesota and Gorgui Dieng to the Grizzlies. The Heat acquired Andre Iguodala, Solomon Hill and Jae Crowder in the deal.
