Johnson averaged 17.4 points and 6.8 rebounds across 36 games for the Wildcats, helping the team reach the Elite Eight round of the 2023 NCAA Division I Men's Basketball Tournament.
Johnson can retain his collegiate eligibility as he has not hired an agent.
Johnson began his collegiate career at Florida and was a 4-star recruit in the class of 2018. He played two full seasons for the Gators but collapsed on the court during a game in 2020 with acute myocarditis.
Johnson did not play in the rest of the 2020-21 season and missed the entirety of the 2021-22 season. He was medically cleared and transferred to Kansas State ahead of the 2022-23 season.
Johnson possesses a 6'6", 230-pound frame and is rated as a potential second-round pick. He would be eligible to declare for a medical redshirt if he were to decide to come back for an additional season with Kansas State.
