Tre Johnson was selected by the Washington Wizards with the No. 6 overall pick in the first round of the 2025 NBA Draft on Thursday night. The 6-foot-6 guard from Texas becomes the latest elite scorer to make the jump to the next level after a standout season that showcased his smooth shooting and polished offensive game.
Johnson entered the draft as one of the top perimeter prospects in his class, known for his three-level scoring ability, composure under pressure and defensive upside. He averaged 20.1 points, 3.1 rebounds and shot 39 percent from three last season, and is expected to provide immediate backcourt depth for a Wizards squad looking to build around youth and versatility.
