Former Syracuse basketball commit Dior Johnson recently was offered more than $1 million from the National Basketball League (NBL), a professional basketball league based in Melbourne, Australia, according to a report.
Johnson, a five-star point guard in the 2022 class, recently committed to Oregon out of the Pac-12 Conference, although it’s certainly possible that he could still end up forgoing college and heading straight from high school to the professional ranks.
Recently, there have been conflicting reports out there as to whether Orange 2022 high-priority target Chance Westry has also received a pro deal worth hundreds of thousands of dollars to upwards of more than $1 million.
