Stanley Johnson (DET) – “Stanimal” 
Profile:
Small Forward: 6’7, 245 lbs; 3rd year, Arizona
NBA Role: (raw) two-way wing • UnderDOG
‘Stanimal’ is a quite fitting nickname for second-year forward Stanley Johnson: he’s had an NBA-ready body since high school and plays with a furious edge on the court; looking to push Detroit to new heights in the East – a potential Top DOG, Johnson excels at ‘bully-ball’ and has shown improved efficiency on his not-so-wobbly (anymore) jumper; strong defender but has run into growing pains to start – learning how to stay disciplined on switches and staying locked in off-ball; ball-handling, shot creation and decision-making need some touching up, though Stan has great instincts on the floor; a young version of Ron Artest (LAL)*? – Stan’s looking to make another leap in his development; DET’s undisputed X-Factor
*like Artest tho, not Metta – ‘Metta’ is the old version of Ron, literally & figuratively
