Nate Johnson - College Basketball News & Rumors

Steady presence for Wildcats Johnson accumulated 17 points (5-9 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 4-4 FT), five rebounds and six assists in 35 minutes during Tuesday's 81-78 win over Utah.

Impact Johnson has started every game this season for the Wildcats and splits time between multiple backcourt positions. The senior transfer from Akron has understandably seen his scoring dip a bit compared to last season, but he's averaging a career-best 4.1 assists per contest, in addition to a three-year high in three-point shooting percentage (40.4). Additional opportunities may await with regular starters Khamari mcGriff (undisclosed) and Abdi Bashir (foot) sidelined by injuries Tuesday, which limited Kansas State to a seven-man rotation.

Setting tone defensively Johnson had 15 points (5-7 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 3-4 FT), three rebounds, four assists, one block and five steals across 22 minutes during Saturday's 106-76 victory over South Dakota.

Impact Johnson tallied 15 points, four helpers and three boards while continuing to stand out on the defensive end, recording five more thefts to give him a total of 14 over his past three games. The 15-point effort represented the most he's scored since a 20-point performance in mid-November but it's his recent work on the defensive end that's proving to be highly valuable for the Wildcats as well as fantasy managers. The senior guard has been a solid addition for Kansas State after spending his first three years at Akron, averaging 12.3 points, 5.3 boards, 3.9 assists and 2.3 steals across 30.5 minutes per contest.
