Maki Johnson is ETSU’s rising two-way guard with real shot-making juice
In the 2025-26 season, Maki Johnson emerged as a bigger piece for East Tennessee State, averaging 5.7 points, 3.2 rebounds, and 0.9 assists in 22.6 minutes per game while shooting 41.5% from the field[3]. The 6-foot-4 junior guard has legit floor-spacing pop—he exploded for 29 points on 10-for-19 shooting, including 9-for-17 from three, against South Alabama in the 2025 season[7]. He looks like a useful fit if a team wants a confident wing-sized guard who can stretch defenses, handle a growing role, and bring steady leadership as ETSU retools its roster[12].
