he leads the nation in assists/40 min with 10.7

2/22/2018 1:00:14 AM

OH HE BACK!

2/22/2018 7:50:23 AM

second in the ACC in steals per 40 to... Lavar Batts Jr

2/22/2018 8:21:10 AM

Btw I'm surprised the Popeyes vs bojangles controversy was never litigated here

2/22/2018 8:57:19 AM

^^He's also in the top 5 in the ACC in Assist/TO ratio at 2.34

#1 in the ACC? Braxton Beverly at 3.06

2/22/2018 9:31:49 AM

Johnson finished 1st in ACC in assists, and 3rd in steals.

3/5/2018 5:05:40 PM

He has been a little down the last two games, played a little better against Louisville. Hope he picks it up in the ACC tourney because I don't see us going very far unless he is back to his good ways of dishing out the assists.

3/5/2018 10:02:35 PM

Johnson had two monster dunks last night.

And he also hit 2 three-pointers in about 8 seconds... at the buzzer at the end of first half, then about 8 seconds into the 2nd half.

11/28/2018 5:26:44 PM

Also had a career high in points I think.

11/28/2018 5:27:31 PM

Has relation with Magic Johnson?

11/29/2018 7:43:04 AM

He is Magic's father.

11/29/2018 11:27:04 AM

This guy is amazing.

12/1/2018 7:22:42 PM

12/19/2018 9:11:07 PM

12/19/2018 9:47:14 PM

well done

12/19/2018 9:47:56 PM

I laffed.

12/19/2018 10:17:43 PM

markell is a beautiful amazing golden god

12/20/2018 6:32:46 AM

I am very glad that #12 for Auburn started talking shit to Markell.

12/20/2018 7:49:33 AM

Announcers mentioned him going to Cleveland over the holidays to see his mom. Stay away from your boys this time, Markell. Remember last year..

12/20/2018 10:08:55 AM

Yeah I said out loud in the house, "Don't get in any fights"

12/20/2018 1:15:49 PM

He can’t be 100%. Just hasn’t really been the same that injury.

I thought it was over with. Back's sore, legs sore, hips sore -- I was through after that fall. Like I don't want to do anything outside of my body that I can't do right now.""

2/11/2019 3:33:59 PM

this week's episode is pretty good. talks about VT/UNC losses, Markell talks about his back, and then holding up against Pitt.

2/12/2019 3:08:51 PM

A total baller.

2/24/2019 6:54:39 PM

Absolute killer today, and I liked how vocal and emotive he was on the floor for once. Literally willed us across the finish.

3/13/2019 3:08:41 PM

A golden god

3/13/2019 3:17:42 PM

Love him

3/13/2019 10:21:13 PM

Magic Johnson's relative?

3/14/2019 8:38:33 AM

^Don’t know!

Thank you Markell! I know it’s just the NIT but hoo boy he saved our bacon again!

3/19/2019 8:55:00 PM

This pointless NIT tournament run will only make the chances higher that he is gone after the year

3/19/2019 10:56:47 PM

this is the appreciation thread, not the be a pessimistic bitch like you always are thread

3/19/2019 10:57:46 PM

I disagree. I think he's going to love playing in Reynolds, change his sex, and play for the women next year

3/19/2019 10:58:12 PM

^^Kinda like how everyone thought we were getting in the NCAAT right? Truth hurts. He's been our best/most important player for two years.

3/19/2019 11:24:41 PM

I don't think the NIT tourney is pointless as far as watching basketball and getting experience for our team, especially if we were to win it. But hey, go be a miserable fucke if that's what you enjoy.

3/19/2019 11:31:20 PM

losing a player because he goes off in a meaningless tournament feels like a very nc state thing to happen tbh

3/19/2019 11:35:55 PM

Posting about some bullshit hypothetical bad event sounds like a very tower thing to do

3/19/2019 11:44:42 PM

Props to TT10 and woody for keeping it real.

3/28/2019 12:01:19 AM

Quote :

" Senior Point Guard Markell Johnson made his 2019-20 debut last night, recording 10 assists against Detroit-Mercy, moving into 8th place all-time in NC State history, passing Nate McMillan and Cat Barber. Johnson will likely finish his career with the 4th most assists in school history. If he can top his previous season high of 190 assists in a season, he could pass Lorenzo Brown for 3rd. "

Boom. Headshot!

12/15/2019 5:03:50 PM

A god dang travesty that this appreciation thread is only 2 pages long.

Dude is a baller. I love him.

12/15/2019 5:15:47 PM

The shot alone doesnt tell you how much he won that game for us. He was +22

12/15/2019 5:20:28 PM

We all know he’s cold.
But is he the coldest to ever do it?

12/15/2019 9:31:32 PM

#1 on SC Top 10

12/15/2019 11:52:57 PM

+3 appreciation

12/22/2019 10:57:02 PM

Hopefully he stays away from his Ohio homies over the holidays.
