BIO: Tyler Johnson was born in Grand Forks, North Dakota (USA) and attended Saint Francis High School
(Mountain View, California).
FAMILY: Johnson is the son of Jennifer and Milton Johnson, and has four siblings: Brandon, Lauren, Logan, and Gabe.
Tyler Johnson made his NBL debut with the Brisbane Bullets at 30 years of age. He scored 14 points in his first game.
Tyler Johnson joined the Brisbane Bullets for the 2022/23 NBL season as a marquee signing, adding NBA experience to a revamped roster that aimed to turn around its fortunes after finishing second last the previous season. Johnson, a veteran guard who previously played alongside Aron Baynes in Phoenix, was expected to bring leadership and scoring to a team bolstered by off-season additions, including Baynes, Devondrick Walker, DJ Mitchell, and Harry Froling.
Despite the optimistic pre-season outlook, Brisbane stumbled out of the gate, losing their first six games. The early struggles highlighted the team’s lack of cohesion and the challenges of reintegrating Nathan Sobey after a significant knee injury and Baynes following a career-threatening neck injury. Johnson, however, quickly became one of Brisbane’s most consistent performers, averaging 15.9 points, 3.5 rebounds, 2.8 assists, and 1.2 steals over 24 games.
The Bullets eventually broke their losing streak with consecutive victories over Illawarra, including an 82-56 win led by Baynes’ dominant 17-point, 14-rebound performance and an 86-61 win fueled by Sobey’s explosive 22-point first half. A narrow 74-72 victory over Tasmania extended Brisbane’s streak to three games, marking their best stretch of the season. Johnson’s steady contributions during this period were key in stabilizing the team’s offense.
However, turmoil soon struck as the Bullets parted ways with underperforming import Walker (9.0 points, 1.8 rebounds, and 1.4 assists) and head coach James Duncan following a disappointing start. General Manager Sam Mackinnon stepped in as interim coach, recording a 106-95 overtime win over Perth in his debut. Johnson scored 18 points in the victory, which saw Sobey shine with a season-high 28 points.
Despite flashes of promise, Brisbane’s season unraveled, including back-to-back catastrophic losses—a 37-point defeat to New Zealand and a historic 49-point loss to Sydney, the largest in NBL history. These losses underscored the team’s struggles with consistency and chemistry. Interim coach Mackinnon was replaced by assistant coach Greg Vanderjagt for the remainder of the season.
The Bullets finished second last for the second consecutive year with an 8-20 record. Johnson, however, was a bright spot in an otherwise disappointing campaign, earning a nomination for the NBL Sixth Man of the Year award. His ability to create scoring opportunities and provide a veteran presence made him a standout, even as the team faltered.
As the season concluded, Brisbane faced a mass exodus of players, reflecting the need for a significant rebuild.
Tyler Johnson played one season in the NBL. He averaged 15.8 points, 3.6 rebounds, and 2.7 assists in 25 NBL games.
