Eddie Johnson

Eddie Johnson fascinates me as the ultimate professional. Seventeen NBA seasons, nearly 1,200 games, and the second-most career points among players who never made an All-Star team tells you everything: he was overlooked yet relentlessly productive. I have a soft spot for athletes who let the box score do the talking instead of the spotlight, and a 201 cm scorer who simply showed up and delivered night after night, even venturing to Greece mid-career, is craftsmanship in its purest form. Surviving nearly two decades at the highest level without star treatment is itself a mark of greatness, and I salute the longevity.
