steady Michigan State guard with playmaking grit and defensive bite
In the 2002-03 season, Rashi Johnson gave Michigan State a low-usage but useful backcourt option: 25 games, 8.7 minutes per game, 1.0 assist, and 0.2 steals, with his best college trait appearing to be control and distribution rather than scoring. Michigan State’s own preseason notes described him as a junior college transfer who led the nation in steals at Mott Community College, which hints at real defensive instincts and competitive edge. He looks like a fit for teams that value toughness, ball movement, and pressure defense over high-volume shot creation.
