Nets' Keon Johnson: Records three steals
Keon Johnson finished with 15 points (6-12 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 1-2 FT), five rebounds, two assists and three steals in 28 minutes during Monday's 110-95 loss to the Heat.Johnson recorded a season-high three steals, a number he's reached four times in his career. The Brooklyn Nets were shorthanded Monday due to Dorian Finney-Smith (calf) being out, but Monday's line is something to keep in mind with the Nets rumored to be sellers at the trade deadline. Johnson is certainly on the deep-league radar going forward.

Nets' Keon Johnson: Starting role yields little
Keon Johnson finished Saturday's 105-94 loss to the Jazz with eight points (3-14 FG, 0-9 3Pt, 2-2 FT), eight rebounds, one assist and one steal over 29 minutes.With Cam Thomas (hamstring) and Ziaire Williams (knee) sidelined, Johnson continues to start for the Brooklyn Nets but has yet to fully take advantage of the situation. Having now started seven consecutive games, Johnson has scored double-digits only once, producing 43 total points in that time. Although there is a chance he continues to start, at least for the foreseeable future, Johnson is unlikely to be a leading producer, especially once the team is healthy.

Nets' Keon Johnson: Puts up 12 points Friday

Nets' Keon Johnson: Scores in double figures
Keon Johnson provided 12 points (4-10 FG, 4-8 3Pt), five rebounds and two blocks across 23 minutes during Wednesday's 139-114 loss to the Celtics.Johnson got hot from beyond the arc in this one, resulting in his first double-digit scoring night since Nov. 1 against the Bulls. However, playing time has been hard to come by for Johnson in the early stages of the 2024-25 season, as he's averaging 13.3 minutes through his first 11 appearances of the campaign. That could change if he's able to stack decent performances like this one, but until then, production will be difficult to rely on.
