Johnson has 20,405 career points and has a chance to add to it against the Cleveland Cavaliers tonight.

The veteran last played for the Houston Rockets in 2018, where he averaged 6 points per game on just 38 percent shooting from the field and 28 from three.

Johnson was cut by the Detroit Pistons in the 2019 in favor of Christian Wood and has not been given another NBA shot until now despite winning a BIG3 championship and 2 MVPs.

For his career, Johnson averages 16 points, 4 rebounds, and 3.9 assists along with shooting 37% from three.

Johnson was drafted 10th by the Boston Celtics in 2001, but was traded to the Suns shortly after for Tony Delk and Rodney Rogers.
