DenverPost.com: Martin’s buddy Johnson signs

Isn’t he the brother or cousin of one of our asst. coaches ?

Dalonte is the god father of DerMarr’s kid I think.

Dalontes Hill's cousin, I believe. We had a chance to get him. I saw him play in the Charlotte pro-am with Rodney, Dalonte and some of our other guys before his freshman year at Cinci.

He was probably the best player in the league that year. The team he played on(Jeff Mcginnis team) was one of the best team s I seen in pro am. That team had Demarco, Hill, Kelvin Price, Demarr, Mcginnis, and I believe J. Zimmerman.

Johnson is outplaying Rodney in the preseason, likely stealing his backup minutes.

Rodney’s latest box score gem: 0-3, 2 points, 2 boards, 2 assists, 1 TO in 13 minutes. His last game before that was similar 4 or 5 points in 10-15 minutes. Barring injury looks like another year riding the pine in Denver…oh well, thought he might get a fair shot this year.

The game before those, he was 5-7 in 26 minutes. He’s streaky. That’s why he’s not a starter.
