Player Review: Did we get to see the real David Johnson?

Of all the new prospects that the Toronto Raptors brought this season, David Johnson was the least utilized by the main club. He played a grand total of 1:59 minutes with the Raptors, as timing and the playoff chase prevented the team from giving him a decent look with the Raptors.

Perhaps the closest opportunity Johnson would have gotten was when COVID-19 ravaged the Raptors in late December. I’m sure we would see his number called up before the “replacements” got extended minutes. However, as fate would have it, Johnson was not available during that time, as he suffered a calf injury almost two weeks prior, and that injury sidelined him for almost five weeks.
