The 34-year-old has been recruited by the BBL&rsquo;s Perth Scorchers. &ldquo;I want to be involved in the coaching side of things which has become a bit more of a focus for me,&rdquo; Johnson said.
&ldquo;I was never going anywhere and wanted to stay here and be part of the community. To play for the Perth Scorchers, where I live and where I&rsquo;m based, is perfect for me.&rdquo; Johnson said.
