Spurs' Keldon Johnson: Non-factor again Tuesday
Keldon Johnson recorded three points (1-3 FG, 1-2 3Pt) and four rebounds in 16 minutes during Tuesday's 124-113 loss to New York.Johnson scored just three points for a second straight game, a worrying sign for anyone still hanging onto him in standard leagues. With Victor Wembanyama continuing to work his way back from a calf injury, the path to minutes for Johnson is far from clear. Given his overall limitations, managers are well within their rights to go hunting for a replacement.

Spurs' Keldon Johnson: Tallies season-low three points
Keldon Johnson finished with three points (1-4 FG, 1-2 3Pt), six rebounds and one steal over 14 minutes during Saturday's 111-109 win over the Thunder.Johnson had his worst game of the season, scoring single digits for just the fifth time. Despite coming off the bench, Johnson has been able to flirt with standard league value, averaging 12.7 points and 6.5 rebounds in 23.6 minutes per game across 25 contests. However, with Victor Wembanyama returning from a calf injury, Johnson's role is likely to be more sporadic, much like it was Saturday.

Spurs' Keldon Johnson: Big night off bench Sunday
Keldon Johnson amassed 22 points (8-13 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 4-5 FT), eight rebounds, two assists and two steals over 26 minutes off the bench during Sunday's 125-112 loss to the Timberwolves.The 26-year-old forward topped 20 points for the second time this season, with both those performances coming in the six games since Stephon Castle (hip) joined Victor Wembanyama (calf) on the sidelines. Over that stretch, Johnson is averaging 17.3 points, 7.7 boards, 2.0 assists, 1.7 threes and 1.0 steals in 26.3 minutes from the second unit while shooting a blistering 61.3 percent from the floor and 43.5 percent (10-for-23) from long distance.

Spurs' Keldon Johnson: Logs double-double from bench
Keldon Johnson posted 11 points (3-7 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 5-7 FT), 10 rebounds, two assists and one steal in 23 minutes during Wednesday's 115-102 win over the Trail Blazers.Injuries to Victor Wembanyama (calf) and Stephon Castle (hip) have impacted the depth chart in multiple ways, and the pecking order of the best fantasy options is still a bit unclear beyond De'Aaron Fox. Johnson hasn't started a game yet this season, but it wouldn't be surprising to see the San Antonio Spurs tinker a bit with the first-unit order if Johnson continues to perform aptly.

Spurs' Keldon Johnson: Posts decent showing off bench
Keldon Johnson accumulated 18 points (8-15 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 1-1 FT), seven rebounds, two steals and one assist across 30 minutes during Tuesday's 111-101 victory over the Grizzlies.Johnson saw a slight decrease in playing time, but that didn't stop him from making an impact in the box score. He scored in double figures for a second straight matchup while leading the San Antonio bench in rebounds. Johnson managed to snap his miserable 0-for-13 skid from beyond the arc by making a three Tuesday, but he still has plenty of room for improvement from range.

Spurs' Keldon Johnson: First double-double of season
Keldon Johnson totaled 14 points (7-11 FG, 0-4 3Pt), 12 rebounds and one assist in 23 minutes off the bench during Sunday's 123-110 win over the Kings.The double-double was Johnson's first of the season, although it was the second time he'd pulled down double-digit boards. The 26-year-old forward is struggling to produce consistent numbers from the second unit, and Johnson is especially misfiring from beyond the arc, going 0-for-13 on three-point attempts over the last six games.

Spurs' Keldon Johnson: Nears double-double in win
Keldon Johnson totaled 10 points (5-9 FG, 0-1 3Pt), seven rebounds, one assist and one steal over 19 minutes during Monday's 121-117 victory over the Bulls.Johnson logged his lowest minutes total since Oct. 24 but was still able to produce, as he has put up 10-plus points in all but two games this season. Johnson will continue to lead the charge among the second unit, and he may be a candidate for increased playing time or even a spot start Wednesday against the Warriors if Devin Vassell (migraine) can't go.
