Anthony Johnson brings high-volume scoring and two-way production to Eastern Illinois
Johnson profiles as a physical 6-4 guard who has shown elite offensive output and disruptive defense, including a 2024-25 season at Cumberlands where he averaged 23.6 points per game, hit a record 214 free throws, and finished with 11 straight 20-plus-point outings. Eastern Illinois lists him at 6-4, 200 pounds and notes production around 24.7 points, 9.6 rebounds, 3.7 assists, and 2.6 steals per game, which points to a rare blend of scoring, rebounding, playmaking, and pressure defense. He looks like a strong fit for a team needing a rugged, high-usage backcourt engine.
