'''Avery DeWitt Johnson''' (born March 25, 1965) is an American [[basketball]] television commentator and former player and coach who most recently served as head coach of the [[Alabama Crimson Tide men's basketball]] team. He is currently an NBA and college basketball analyst for [[CBS Sports]].

Johnson spent 16 years in the [[National Basketball Association]] as a player, and subsequently served as the head coach of two NBA teams: the [[Dallas Mavericks]] and [[Brooklyn Nets|New Jersey/Brooklyn Nets]]. He led the Mavericks to their first [[NBA Finals]] appearance and to three consecutive 50+ win seasons. During his playing days, Johnson was known as the "Little General" for his small stature (by NBA standards), his leadership skills as a [[point guard]], and his close friendship with former [[San Antonio Spurs]] teammate [[David Robinson]].

==Playing career==

===College===
As a high school senior in 1983, Johnson led New Orleans' [[St. Augustine High School (New Orleans)|St. Augustine High School]] to a 35–0 record and the Class 4A Louisiana State Championship. Johnson matriculated to [[New Mexico Junior College]] before moving on to [[Cameron University]], and finally [[Southern University]], at which in his senior season in 1988 he led [[NCAA Division I]] with 13.3 assists per game, an all-time record {{as of|2007|lc=y}}.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.ncaa.org/library/records/basketball/m_basketball_records_book/2007/2007_m_basketball_records.pdf |title=Official 2007 NCAA Men's Basketball Records Book, page 20 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070323023343/http://www.ncaa.org/library/records/basketball/m_basketball_records_book/2007/2007_m_basketball_records.pdf |archive-date=March 23, 2007}} &nbsp;{{small|(4.57&nbsp;[[Mebibyte|MiB]])}}; retrieved August 13, 2007</ref> In that season, he also averaged 11.4 points per game, making him the first men's Division I player ever to average double figures in points and assists in the same season—a feat that was not duplicated until [[Jason Brickman]] of [[LIU Brooklyn Blackbirds men's basketball|LIU Brooklyn]] did so in [[2013–14 LIU Brooklyn Blackbirds men's basketball team|2013–14]].<ref>{{cite news|url=http://espn.go.com/new-york/mens-college-basketball/story/_/id/10538434/liu-brooklyn-brickman-reaches-1000-assists-final-game |title=Jason Brickman earns 1,000th assist |first=Kieran |last=Darcy |publisher=ESPN |date=March 1, 2014 |access-date=March 2, 2014}}</ref>

Johnson also played in six playoff games for the Stingrays.<ref name="NBA player">{{cite web|url=http://www.nba.com/playerfile/avery_johnson/bio.html|title=Avery Johnson Bio|publisher=NBA|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20060427234411/http://www.nba.com/playerfile/avery_johnson/bio.html|archive-date=April 27, 2006|date=2004|access-date=December 23, 2016}}</ref>

====Various NBA teams (1989–1994)====
In the 1989–90 season, Johnson played 53 games with 10 starts for the [[1989–90 Seattle SuperSonics season|Seattle SuperSonics]]. He made 18 assists on January 5, 1990, against the Miami Heat.<ref name="NBA player"/>

On October 24, 1990, the SuperSonics traded Johnson to the [[1990–91 Denver Nuggets season|Denver Nuggets]] for a conditional pick in the [[1997 NBA draft]]. After playing 21 games, Johnson was waived from the Nuggets in December before signing with the [[1990–91 San Antonio Spurs season|San Antonio Spurs]] on January 17, 1991. Johnson played 47 games with seven starts for the Spurs and averaged 9.4 points, 2.1 rebounds, and 5.4 assists.<ref name="NBA player"/>

In the beginning of the 1991–92 season, Johnson played 20 games and averaged 5.0 points and 6.8 assists for the Spurs before being waived in December. On January 10, 1992, Johnson signed the first of several 10-day contracts with the [[1991–92 Houston Rockets season|Houston Rockets]] that preceded a longer-term contract. Johnson scored a then-career-high 22 points against the [[Minnesota Timberwolves]] on January 28.<ref name="NBA player"/>

Signed as an unrestricted free agent, Johnson returned to the Spurs on November 19, 1992. Promoted to starter, Johnson averaged 8.7 points, 1.9 rebounds, and 7.5 assists and improved his field goal percentage to .502 in 75 games. In the playoffs, Johnson averaged 8.2 points and 8.1 assists.<ref name="NBA player"/>

Johnson signed with the [[1993–94 Golden State Warriors season|Golden State Warriors]] on October 25, 1993, and was named team captain just nine days into his signing. Starting 70 of 82 games, Johnson reached a new career high 10.9 points per game along with 5.3 assists per game.<ref name="NBA player"/>

====San Antonio Spurs (1994–2001)====
[[File:Avery Johnson March 2, 2000 (cropped).jpg|thumb|right|Johnson at the [[Alamodome]] in March 2000]]
Johnson was with the Spurs from 1994 to 2001, and played an integral role on the [[1998–99 San Antonio Spurs season|1998–99 Spurs team]] that won the [[1999 NBA Finals|NBA championship]] against the [[New York Knicks]]. Johnson made the go-ahead, championship-clinching shot in Game 5 on a jumper with 47 seconds remaining in the game.<ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.nytimes.com/1999/06/26/sports/nba-finals-spurs-win-title-as-knicks-dream-ends.html |title=N.B.A. FINALS; Spurs Win Title as Knicks' Dream Ends |first=Selena |last=Roberts |work=[[The New York Times]] |date=June 26, 1999 |access-date=April 6, 2015}}</ref> The Spurs retired Johnson's number 6 on December 22, 2007.<ref>{{cite news|url=http://usatoday30.usatoday.com/sports/basketball/2007-12-23-186396253_x.htm |title=San Antonio Spurs retire Avery Johnson's No. 6 |first=Elizabeth |last=White |work=[[USA Today]] |date=December 23, 2007 |access-date=April 6, 2015}}</ref> He was also inducted into the San Antonio Sports Hall of Fame on February 20, 2009.<ref>{{cite web|title=San Antonio Sports Hall of Fame Names Class of 2009 |publisher=San Antonio Sports Foundation |date=October 21, 2008 |url=http://www.sanantoniosports.org/releases/2009%20Inductees%20Announced_10_21_08.pdf |access-date=April 6, 2015 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160306122751/http://www.sanantoniosports.org/releases/2009%20Inductees%20Announced_10_21_08.pdf |archive-date=March 6, 2016}}</ref>

====After the Spurs====
On July 19, 2001, Johnson signed as a free agent with the [[2001–02 Denver Nuggets season|Denver Nuggets]]. Johnson played 51 games (13 starts) with the Nuggets and averaged 9.4 points, 1.3 rebounds, and 5.1 assists.<ref name="bbr">{{cite web|url=https://www.basketball-reference.com/players/j/johnsav01.html|title=Avery Johnson|work=basketball-reference.com|access-date=December 23, 2016|archive-date=April 3, 2013|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130403170049/http://www.basketball-reference.com/players/j/johnsav01.html|url-status=dead}}</ref> The Nuggets traded Johnson, [[Nick Van Exel]], [[Raef LaFrentz]], and [[Tariq Abdul-Wahad]] to the [[2001–02 Dallas Mavericks season|Dallas Mavericks]] on February 21, 2002, for [[Donnell Harvey]], [[Tim Hardaway]], [[Juwan Howard]], and draft considerations. Johnson played 17 games all as a reserve with the Mavericks for the rest of the season.<ref name="bbr"/>

In the 2002–03 season, Johnson played in 48 games as a reserve for the Mavericks, averaging 9.0 minutes per game. During the 2003 offseason, the Mavericks traded Johnson, Van Exel, [[Popeye Jones]], [[Antoine Rigaudeau]], and [[Evan Eschmeyer]] to the Golden State Warriors for [[Antawn Jamison]], [[Jiří Welsch]], [[Chris Mills (basketball)|Chris Mills]], and [[Danny Fortson]]. Johnson ended his NBA career in the 2003–04 season in his second stint with the [[2003–04 Golden State Warriors season|Warriors]]. He played 46 games with one start and averaged 4.6 points, 0.7 rebounds, and 2.4 assists.<ref name="bbr"/>

==Post-playing career==

===Dallas Mavericks===
On October 28, 2004, Johnson retired from playing and signed as an assistant coach with the [[Dallas Mavericks]] under [[Don Nelson]]. Johnson had played under Nelson from 1993 to 1994 and from 2002 to 2003, and it was understood from the beginning that he was being groomed to eventually succeed Nelson as [[head coach]]. His transition from assistant to head coach came five months later on March 19, 2005, after Nelson resigned.

Under Johnson, the Mavericks closed out the [[2004–05 NBA season|2004–05 season]] with a 16–2 run and a first-round playoff victory over the [[Houston Rockets]], before being eliminated by the [[Phoenix Suns]] in the second round of the [[NBA playoffs|playoffs]]. Johnson was named the April 2005 NBA Coach of the Month, only one month after becoming a head coach for the first time.
[[file:Avery Johnson.jpg|thumb|170px|Johnson as the head coach of the Mavs, 2008]]
The [[2005–06 NBA season|2005–06 season]] was even more successful for Johnson and was marked by a series of milestones. In November 2005, Johnson won his second NBA Coach of the Month award (which was also his second consecutive award, following the one he had won in April the previous season), making him the first NBA coach to win the award in his first two months as a head coach. On January 28, 2006, when the [[Dallas Mavericks]] defeated the [[Utah Jazz]], Johnson's record as head coach improved to 50–12, making Johnson the fastest coach to reach 50 wins. In February 2006, he was chosen to coach the [[2006 NBA All-Star Game|2006 NBA All-Star team]] for the [[Western Conference (NBA)|Western Conference]]. Although Johnson ultimately led the Mavericks to the second-best record in the Western Conference, the team entered the playoffs as the fourth seed in the West due to the structure of the [[2006 NBA Playoffs]] seeding. In April 2006, Johnson was rewarded for his success throughout the season with the 2006 [[NBA Coach of the Year Award]].

In June 2006, after defeating the [[Memphis Grizzlies]], the defending champion [[San Antonio Spurs]], and the [[Phoenix Suns]] in the first three rounds of the playoffs, Johnson led the Mavericks to their first ever [[2006 NBA Finals|NBA Finals]] appearance. However, the Mavs were defeated in [[Best-of-seven playoff|six games]] by the [[Miami Heat]], losing four straight after winning the first two games.

On December 31, 2006, Johnson became the fastest head coach (at the time) to win 100 games when his squad defeated the [[Denver Nuggets]]. This record was later broken by [[Tom Thibodeau]] and the [[Chicago Bulls]]. In the [[2006–07 NBA season|2006–07 season]], Johnson's Mavericks had the best record in the NBA with 67 wins and entered the playoffs as the top seed. However, his Mavericks lost to the eighth-seeded [[Golden State Warriors]], led by former Mavericks head coach [[Don Nelson]], in one of the biggest upsets in recent NBA history.

With the Mavs' win over the Grizzlies on November 18, 2007, Johnson became the fastest coach to reach 150 wins. Following the [[2007–08 Dallas Mavericks season|2007–08 season]], the Mavericks under Johnson were eliminated in the first round of the [[2008 NBA Playoffs|playoffs]] for the second year in a row. A day later, on April 30, 2008, Johnson was dismissed as head coach of the Mavericks and replaced by former [[NBA Coach of the Year]], [[Rick Carlisle]].<ref>[http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/news/story?id=3375306 ESPN – Mavs, Johnson part ways after team's playoff ouster – NBA<!-- Bot generated title -->]</ref><ref>[http://www.nba.com/mavericks/news/Avery_Johnson_dismissed_043008.html MAVERICKS: Avery Johnson dismissed as coach<!-- Bot generated title -->]</ref><ref>[http://www.nba.com/mavericks/news/Official_release_Johnson_relieved.html MAVERICKS: Official release: Mavericks relieve Avery Johnson of coaching duties<!-- Bot generated title -->]</ref>

===First stint at ESPN===
On October 17, 2008, Johnson joined [[ESPN]] as a studio analyst. He remained in that role for two seasons, until he received an offer to become head coach of the [[New Jersey Nets]].<ref>{{cite web|url=http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/news/story?id=3648496 |title=Johnson transitions to full-time role as ESPN NBA analyst |work=Sports.espn.go.com |date=October 17, 2008}}</ref>

===New Jersey/Brooklyn Nets===
On June 10, 2010, Johnson was hired as head coach of the [[New Jersey Nets]],<ref>{{cite web|url=http://sports.espn.go.com/dallas/nba/news/story?id=5268483 |title=Avery Johnson, New Jersey Nets reach verbal agreement |work=Sports.espn.go.com |date=June 10, 2010}}</ref> which had just finished a dismal [[2009–10 New Jersey Nets season|2009–10 campaign]] with a 12–70 record. In his first year as coach of the Nets, the team improved slightly, doubling its win total from the previous season and finishing 24–58. However, the next year saw no such improvement, as his team went 22–44 in the [[2011–12 NBA season|lockout-shortened season]].

Johnson remained with the Nets when the team moved to Brooklyn in 2012. He was named the [[Eastern Conference (NBA)|Eastern Conference]] Coach of the Month for October and November 2012 following an 11–4 start to the season. Despite that early success, the team went on to lose ten of its next 13 games, and subsequently Johnson was fired from his head coaching position on December 27, 2012.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.nba.com/2012/news/12/27/nets-fire-johnson.ap/index.html|title=Struggling Nets fire head coach Johnson|date=December 27, 2012|access-date=December 27, 2012|work=NBA.com|publisher=Turner Sports Interactive|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130803023218/http://www.nba.com/2012/news/12/27/nets-fire-johnson.ap/index.html|archive-date=August 3, 2013|url-status=dead}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=https://sports.yahoo.com/news/1-nba-slumping-nets-fire-coach-avery-johnson-190611505--nba.html |title=UPDATE 2-NBA-Slumping Nets fire coach Avery Johnson - Yahoo!
