Source-derived summary

Tyren Milton Johnson (born July 24, 1988) is an American professional basketball player who last played for SYNTAINICS MBC of the Basketball Bundesliga (BBL). A native of Edgard, Louisiana, Johnson played college basketball at Louisiana where he was named the Sun Belt Conference Player of the Year as a senior in 2009–10. Since 2010 he has competed professionally and was named an NBA Development League All-Star in 2011–12.

College career

After graduating from West St. John High School in Edgard, Johnson began his collegiate career for Louisiana–Lafayette in 2006. His freshman season was inauspicious; he averaged 1.6 points and 1.7 rebounds per game in 25 games played. He scored a total of 41 points on the year. The following season, 2007–08, was similar to his freshman campaign. Johnson averaged 3.1 points and 3.5 rebounds per game while only scoring 90 points on the year.

In Johnson's junior season, his productivity markedly increased to 7.2 points, 5.1 rebounds, 1.5 assists, 1.3 blocks, and 0.8 steals per game.

Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

The subject matters to the people & ideas register because the source frames it as american basketball player (born 1988). Its deeper value depends on whether names, dates, institutions and citations support that framing.

Evidence profile

Chronology provides the most reliable spine for this subject; interpretation should follow only after identities and dates are secure. The source revision retrieved here is dated Aug 8, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q4001220. 1 of 1 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 1988, 2009, 2010 and 2011.

Critical limits

A concise life account rarely captures disputed attribution, private networks or the changing language used to describe a career. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
