The arrival of AJ Dybantsa, who was the No. 1 pick in the 2026 NBA Draft, creates additional competition on the wing, though Johnson (foot) should still maintain a decent role in Washington's young core.
The 2025 lottery pick showed flashes as a scorer during his rookie season and figures to remain an important perimeter option alongside Dybantsa, Kyshawn George and Bilal Coulibaly. While touches may become harder to find on a deeper roster, especially with Trae Young around, Johnson's long-term outlook remains strong as the Wizards continue building around multiple young wings.
