AJ Johnson fills a niche for DAL but impact is limited — BIS 38
AJ Johnson is a player for the Mavericks, ranking in the 13th percentile league-wide by Baseline Impact Score (38). In 9 minutes per game across 40 starts, AJ produces 2.8/1.2/0.9 (pts/reb/ast).
Live Form Index: 50/100.
The 20.5% three-point clip is a real weakness. Teams leave AJ open beyond the arc, which shrinks the floor for the entire offense. Improving this to even league-average (36%) would transform his offensive ceiling. The 32.6% field goal clip is concerning — either the shot diet is too difficult, or finishing/touch needs work. This inefficiency costs the offense roughly 1-1 points of production per game.
Defensive effort and ability are below average for a wing (DRS 36). Gets caught on screens, struggles in isolation against quicker guards, and provides minimal weak-side help. Improving lateral quickness and defensive effort would have an outsized impact on his overall value.
Off-Ball Impact Score: 50/100.
AJ fills a specific niche for the Mavericks. His value is real but limited in scope — a complementary piece, not a building block.
If AJ's three-point shooting improves from 21% to league-average (36%), his BIS projects to jump from 38 to approximately 49.
