Professional career

Johnson-Odom spent three seasons at Marquette University before he was selected 55th overall in the 2012 NBA draft by the Dallas Mavericks, who immediately traded him to the Los Angeles Lakers.[5] Johnson-Odom was assigned to the Lakers' D-League team, the Los Angeles D-Fenders, several times during 2012–13 season.[6]

On January 7, 2013, Johnson-Odom was waived by the Lakers.[7] It was the final day for NBA teams to cut players on non-guaranteed contracts before their contracts became locked for the season. He played four games and had just 6 minutes in total for the Lakers, spending most of his time in the D-League where he was the D-Fenders' leading scorer, averaging 21 points per game.[8]

On January 3, 2014, he was acquired by the Springfield Armor.[13]

On March 14, 2014, he signed a 10-day contract with the Philadelphia 76ers.[14] On March 24, 2014, he was not offered a second 10-day contract after his first 10-day contract expired.[15]

On August 2, 2014, he signed with Pallacanestro Cantù of Italy for the 2014–15 season.[16]

On June 14, 2015, Johnson-Odom signed with Trabzonspor of the Turkey for the 2015–16 season.[17] On December 28, 2015, he left Trabzonspor and signed with Olympiacos Piraeus of Greece for the rest of the season.[18]
