a 6'8" wing with scoring pop, recovery grit, and real upside for GW
In the 2025-26 season, Garrett Johnson returned from a torn ACL after an unusual comeback story that included beating a rare cancer, and he remains one of George Washington’s most intriguing frontcourt pieces. He’s a long 6'8" forward who can score in bunches, stretch the floor, and chip in on the glass; in the 2025-26 season he was listed at 11.4 points, 3.4 rebounds, and 1.2 assists per game across 29 appearances. What makes him stand out is the toughness, maturity, and edge behind the numbers—he plays like someone who has already survived a lot, which is usually a very good sign for a team fit.
