Ohio State commit and four-star point guard Marcus Johnson, drew attention at the NBPA top 100 camp with his skills during the scrimmages. On Monday, Slam HS posted a video of his highlights from the event.
The NBPA Top 100 Camp, which was held last Monday-Friday, is the top event for elite high school players. It was also a chance for scouts and coaches to catch top Class of 2026 talent in action.
Johnson, who plays for Garfield Heights High School in Ohio, dazzled with crisp ball handling, creative footwork and smooth finishers.
Trending
He burst onto the scene last season, earning Ohio Mr. Basketball honors after averaging 29.7 points per game.
At the camp, Johnson looked like a player ready for the next level. He also showed leadership, initiated plays, communicated well on defense and directed transition plays.
The guard committed to Ohio State on April 10, 2024, and he remains one of the top prospects in the Midwest. ESPN ranks him the No. 20 prospect in the Class of 2026, while Rivals has Johnson among the nation’s top 40 guards.
For Buckeyes fans, it will be exciting to see their commit rise to the challenge at the collegiate level. Ohio State has a standout in-state point guard to build around, and John has mentioned that he is ready to have ball in his hands .
Marcus Johnson walks in his dad’s footsteps by winning the same award
Sonny Johnson was named Ohio Mr. Basketball in 1998 while playing for Garfield Heights High School. After 27 years, his son, Marcus, earned the same honor.
Marcus spoke about the joy of sharing this uniqueness with his dad.
“Since I was in high school, my dad always used to tell me that Mr. Basketball is a big thing,” Marcus said in April, via The Columbus Dispatch. “I used to go play with him and a lot of people would say, ‘You’re Mr. Basketball from 1998.’ It was a dream come true, to be honest. In high school I’ve always wanted to win that award, knowing how big it was.”
With his dad coaching the school, Marcus averaged 29.7 points, 5.7 rebounds, 4.7 assists and 2.2 steals last season to win the award.
