Oh, Hello: North Carolina Forward Puff Johnson Transfers To Penn State Basketball

Penn State gets another transfer, this time former North Carolina forward Puff Johnson chose the Nittany Lions after entering his name in the transfer portal earlier this offseason. Johnson was a former four-star recruit who averaged 4.1 points, 2.7 rebounds, and 0.4 assists per game last season, coming in just shy of 16 minutes per game.

While Johnson didn’t exactly reach his 4-star potential at North Carolina, a change of scenery (and a style of play that may better suit his talents) could do wonders for the senior. After all, he was the No. 62 player in the country for a reason.
