Colorado High Schoo Basketball Podcast Season 7 episode 4- Dev Johnson on Hoops, Media, and the Power of Loving the Game

In this conversation, host Matt Langley sits down with longtime friend, media voice, and Colorado hoops staple Dev Johnson. Dev shares the full arc of his basketball journey—from playing for Mike Rogers at George Washington High School and reaching the state championship, to discovering sports media at UNC, landing an unexpected ESPN Denver internship, and eventually becoming a defining voice at DNVR Sports.

Dev talks about the coaches who shaped him, the moments that pushed him, and how his deep love for basketball has guided every step—from covering the Nuggets through the Jokic era to returning to the high school scene with Prep Hoops. He and Matt revisit old stories, break down how Dev evaluates players today, and reflect on how basketball can change a life on and off the court.

A heartfelt, funny, and insightful episode to close out the preseason and kick off another year of Colorado high school hoops.
