“I narrowed it down to these two schools out of my six because just different things about different programs,” Johnson said. “It wasn’t a decision. I just weighed out the pros and cons of all the schools. Really, Texas and Baylor are the best two options for me at the moment. Also, I’m the best player in Texas. Why not just stay and compete in Texas? I never thought there would be a better opportunity to leave for a better place when there’s the best competition in Texas.”
Prior to transferring to Link Academy, Johnson helped Lake Highlands (Texas) to the 2023 6A UIL State Championship.

Tre Johnson Scouting Journal
On3 national recruiting analyst Jamie Shaw wrote this about Johnson as a prospect in May:
“Tre Johnson is as natural a scorer as there is in the class. Standing at a lengthy 6-5, he’s able to get the shot off over defenders. What really stands out is his ability to create space. His balance is great and can’t talk enough about the footwork. He still needs to continue working on the strength and distinguishing between a shot you can get and a good shot. Johnson has a smooth jump shot, with a repeatable form and release, no matter the level. He averaged 24.0 points on 40.7% 3P in Phoenix.”
