Hawks' Jalen Johnson: Posts double-double in return
Jalen Johnson closed with 15 points (6-16 FG, 3-5 3Pt), 14 rebounds, four assists and two steals over 35 minutes during Wednesday's 120-97 loss to Golden State.Johnson returned from a one-game absence and notched his seventh double-double of the season, albeit while shooting poorly from the floor. Any player can have an off night from the floor, however, so fantasy managers shouldn't be worried about Johnson's efficiency, particularly in this matchup against an on-the-rise Warriors team. Johnson's role as one of the Atlanta Hawks' go-to players on offense shouldn't be under any threat going forward, and he'll remain valuable in fantasy even amid an occasional off night due to his impressive two-way contributions.

Hawks' Jalen Johnson: Records triple-double in win
Jalen Johnson recorded 18 points (8-17 FG, 2-4 3Pt), 13 rebounds, 10 assists, one block and three steals across 39 minutes during Tuesday's 117-116 victory over the Celtics.Johnson shouldered a lot of the playmaking responsibilities, tallying a season-high 10 assists. With Trae Young sidelined due to an Achilles issue, it was Johnson who stepped up, continuing his strong start to the season. Despite some off-shooting nights, he has been relatively consistent, and at this point, we may just be scratching the surface when it comes to what he is capable of on a basketball court.

Hawks' Jalen Johnson: Stays hot from downtown
Jalen Johnson accumulated 20 points (8-19 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), nine rebounds, one assist and one block over 37 minutes during Friday's 122-121 loss to the Pistons.Johnson reached the 20-point threshold for the fourth game in a row, and he also continued to add value from beyond the arc.

Hawks' Jalen Johnson: Sniffs triple-double in win
Jalen Johnson posted 23 points (10-18 FG, 3-6 3Pt), 15 rebounds, seven assists and one block over 39 minutes during Wednesday's 121-116 victory over the Knicks.Johnson was one of the main reasons why the Atlanta Hawks pulled the upset against the Knicks, and he finished just three dimes away from recording what would've been his first triple-double of the campaign. It seems the breakout season he had in 2023-24 was the real deal, as the star forward is putting up even better numbers throughout the first two weeks of the 2024-25 campaign. Through nine contests, Johnson is averaging career-high marks in points (18.9), rebounds (10.6), assists (5.3), steals (1.6) and blocks (0.9) per game.

Hawks' Jalen Johnson: Stuffs stat sheet once again
Jalen Johnson ended Monday's 123-93 loss to the Celtics with 20 points (7-20 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 4-5 FT), 11 rebounds, four assists and one steal over 31 minutes.Johnson didn't have his best performance from an efficiency perspective, but that won't matter much if he continues to deliver the same numbers he's been posting over the first two weeks of the regular season. Johnson could be in line for a sizable uptick in usage if Trae Young (ribs) is forced to miss time, but even if that's not the case, Johnson's role as a primary offensive weapon in Atlanta is set in stone. Through eight contests, Johnson is averaging 18.4 points, 10.0 rebounds, 5.1 assists and 1.8 steals per game.
