At first I noticed the dude was shooting with his left hand. Then I really looked and noticed that he didn't look like our Xavier Johnson. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Huskerpapa 3,065 Report post Posted September 26, 2017 Glad I was not the only one to note the video was wrong. That writer also references his shooting prowess, which is wrong as well. The article, in total, was poorly done. I mean no disrespect, but jeez, it was like I was reading about a different commitment. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Swan88 1,044 Report post Posted September 26, 2017 It's not every day Nebrasketball gets an article in the Washington Post. Check out this one about Xavier Johnson. Here's the opening sentence from the article: Xavier Johnson, a four-star senior point guard at O’Connell, verbally committed to Nebraska on Monday. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LK1 773 Report post Posted September 26, 2017 Phenomenal get. This kid is a great passer, super athletic, strong, and lanky. Definitely an upper D1 player. Another 4* for TM. Unreal. He's a TRUE point guard. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ive seen 6'1 6'2 and 6'3 Not sure on exact height, but very long reach and excellent leaping ability. I'd say he plays at 6'4" - 6'5" regardless of height.
