Former NBA All-Star Joe Johnson took home the BIG3’s MVP award this year and is playing in the league’s championship game this Sunday, but that doesn’t mean his season will end there.
Johnson, 38, has caught the eye of numerous NBA teams and reportedly will work out for the Philadelphia 76ers on Thursday, according to ESPN’s Marc J. Spears. Johnson is also set to work out for the Los Angeles Clippers, Denver Nuggets and Milwaukee Bucks while the New Orleans Pelicans have expressed interest in the guard, per Spears.
Add the Pelicans to that list of interest in Joe Johnson, a source said. Pelicans head coach Alvin Gentry and VP David Griffin watched Joe Johnson play in the @thebig3 in New Orleans last week. https://t.co/ubMxbwqKfu
