In a very special feature - we pay tribute to Adelaide 36er and NBL retired star Daniel 'DJ" Johnson

From his early years at AIS, Pepperdine and the Melbourne Tigers - we cover the key moments in his 417 NBL game career (366 with the Sixers) including the numbers and the moments that defined the generational player he has been.

We then cap it off with the live recast of the #21 singlet retirement ceremony which for more than one reason was an emotional night at the Adelaide Entertainment Centre...
