Julian Benbow The Boston Globe pens a nice look at JaJuan Johnson and his path to the NBA. It closes with a look at the summer unconventional Johnson has the lock:

At the end of the month, Johnson will lead the attack in Athletics in Chicago to work with Tim Grover, who has trained Michael Jordan, Dwyane Wade and Gilbert Arenas, among others. He will focus on core exercises and lower body strength. The weight will not be a problem.
