Keldon Johnson

Keldon Johnson is a physical, downhill scoring wing who has been a steadying presence through the San Antonio Spurs' rebuild. The 29th pick in the 2019 draft out of Kentucky, he grew from a second-round flier into a starter and reliable shot-maker, and in 2025-26 he embraced a bench role and won the NBA Sixth Man of the Year Award, averaging 13.2 points on an efficient 51.9% from the field. Johnson's game is built on force — attacking closeouts, drawing fouls and crashing the glass from the wing — and his willingness to accept whatever role wins has made him a valued veteran on a young, rising Spurs team.
