  07/03/2024 • By RotoWire

  Johnson signed a deal in the Euroleague with Anadolu Efes on Wednesday, Michael Scotto of USA Today reports. An NBA veteran with eight seasons of experience, Johnson never quite found his stride during stints with the Pistons, Pelicans, Raptors, Lakers and Spurs. In 449 career NBA games, Johnson produced averages of 6.2 points, 3.1 rebounds, 1.5 assists, 0.9 steals and 0.6 three-pointers.

• Stanley Johnson: Player rights acquired by Stockton

  12/05/2023 • By RotoWire

  The Stockton Kings acquired Johnson's returning player rights from the Sioux Falls Skyforce Tuesday, Michael Scotto of USA Today reports. In a deal brokered between Sacramento and Miami's G League affiliates, Johnson's player rights now belong to the Stockton Kings. Sacramento's main roster has an open spot, but it's unclear if that will be used on Johnson. The 27-year-old hasn't played since being waived by San Antonio in February, and his last G League action came in 2019-20 with Toronto.

• Stanley Johnson: Will be let go by San Antonio

  02/12/2023 • By RotoWire

  The Spurs will release Johnson on Sunday, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports. Johnson garnered a modest reserve role for the Spurs this season, averaging 5.8 points, 3.2 rebounds and 2.2 assists in 15.6 minutes across 30 appearances. He's shooting 45.0 percent from three and is a solid defender, so there'll presumably be a few contenders interested in acquiring him for the stretch run.

• Spurs' Stanley Johnson: Sees big backup minutes

  01/29/2023 • By RotoWire

  Johnson closed with seven points (3-8 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 0-2 FT), 12 rebounds and two assists in 26 minutes during Saturday's 128-118 overtime loss to Phoenix. With several key wings out for the Spurs on Saturday night, Johnson saw a season-high 26 minutes. While his usage was still fairly low, he had an unusually high rebounding night and set a season high with 12 boards. However, fantasy managers don't need to take much from this performance, as Johnson's role will likely be diminished when Josh Richardson (knee) and Romeo Langford (hip) are back in action.

• Spurs' Stanley Johnson: Active Thursday

  01/27/2023 • By RotoWire

  Johnson (wrist) will suit up for Thursday's game against the Clippers, Paul Garcia of ProjectSpurs.com reports. Johnson was handed a questionable designation Thursday with right wrist soreness, but the issue will not prevent him from playing. With Josh Richardson (knee) and Jeremy Sochan (quad) sitting out, Johnson could be in line for a few extra minutes. However, he has failed to cross the five-point threshold in five of his last six contests.
