James Johnson to enter NBA Draft
Posted Apr 5, 2009
To the surprise of no one, least of all his coach at Wake Forest, James Johnson has said he will enter the NBA Draft and likely forego his final two seasons of college. Johnson, a 6-9 sophomore forward from Cheyenne, Wyo., told his hometown paper on Friday that he has made his decision. "My mind's made up; I'm going to enter," Johnson told the Wyoming Tribune Eagle. "I think I'm ready now."
