08:05 AM ET 03.05 | At long last, shooting guard Wesley Johnson is coming around. It's just at three-game sample, but [Johnson] is finally putting up numbers expected of a former first-round draft pick. Johnson, taken fourth overall by the Minnesota Timberwolves in 2010, has averaged 12 points, 6.3 rebounds and one steal in Phoenix's three-game winning streak. Included in that stretch, of course, was the 3-point buzzer-beater against San Antonio that sent the game into overtime and resulted in a Suns win. "It's really getting into a rhythm and feeling more comfortable out there," Johnson said. "My confidence is definitely coming back. I always felt like there was place for me on the court. Getting back out there and playing is the main thing."

It does lol. This is good for him I think if he failed under more minutes it would have been one of his last chances. He was an older college player so I thought he would be further along when he came out. Maybe he can be a 6th man for the Suns not sure they have a clear starter though

Man soon as I read that thread I thought essentially the same exact thing. For a 4th overall pick those are quite pedestrian numbers.
