And he wore that?
The former Orange forward took the stage when he heard his name called after the Minnesota Timberwolves selected him No. 4 overall pick in one of the oddest ensembles ever seen — thrown in the “Draft Losers” pile — at the formal NBA Draft event. His Scottish plaid pants may as well have come with a bagpipe melody, and his jacket — complete with at least eight brass buttons (we’re still counting) — only served to hide the glare of a sunshine yellow shirt.
It’s clear that Johnson has no qualms about separating himself from the crowd. That’s good, because Minnesota is going to need Johnson to stand out — in more than just his wardrobe choices.

“I’m not much of a home run hitter. I hit a lot of line drives in the
gap, if they go out they go out.”

Comment of the Day
It seems one Red Sox fan knew Boston was in for a good month of June. The prediction is scary good.
“If you could only read my posts from May 31. I predicted the Sox to be
at 46 – 48 wins and playing TB for first place during the last two games
of the month. Hmmm??”
