He appeared in 35 games for the Tigers, making nine starts and averaging 21 minutes and 6.3 points per game.
Johnson scored in double figures seven times last season, including an 11-point performance in his final game for Clemson. Across his four collegiate seasons, Johnson has averaged 7.6 points per game and made 163 three-point field goals. With this addition, Virginia Tech now has seven new transfers joining the team for the 2026-27 campaign.
