Nets' Cameron Johnson: Resting up Thursday
Rotowire
Johnson is listed out for Thursday's against the Pacers due to rest purposes.
Thursday's game is not part of a back-to-back set, so the timing is interesting. Presumably, Johnson will be back in action for the Nets' rematch with the Pacers on Saturday, but fantasy managers will first want to confirm that he's actually playing before locking him into lineups. With Johnson sitting out Thursday, players such as Trendon Watford, Jalen Wilson, Maxwell Lewis and Noah Clowney could see more minutes than usual.

It was the second double-double of the season by Johnson, who led the Nets in scoring Saturday.

Johnson did not play in Saturday's 105-102 loss to the Hornets due to left knee soreness, which was the first game he had missed since Feb. 4. He's been given the green light to play Monday, and he'll be expected to have an increased role on offense due to the absence of Cam Thomas (hamstring).

Nets' Cameron Johnson: Team-high 23 points in upset win
Rotowire
Johnson had 23 points (7-17 FG, 1-9 3Pt, 8-8 FT), four rebounds, four assists and three steals over 35 minutes during Saturday's 105-103 win over the 76ers.
Johnson led the Nets with 23 points to power Saturday's upset win despite a poor night shooting the ball from deep, and he also tied a season high with three steals. Over his last six contests, the 28-year-old has averaged 17.7 points, 4.5 rebounds, 2.8 assists, 1.0 steals and 2.2 three-pointers in 29.4 minutes. Johnson should remain Brooklyn's clear-cut top scoring option while both Cam Thomas (hamstring) and D'Angelo Russell (ankle) remain on the shelf.

Rotowire
Johnson registered 18 points (6-11 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 3-4 FT), three rebounds and two assists across 29 minutes during Thursday's 110-97 loss to the Cavaliers.
The Nets were far from being at their best Thursday, but Johnson still posted a solid showing on both ends of the court and was among Brooklyn's top-scoring weapons. Johnson has missed 13 of the Nets' 23 games since the beginning of January due to injuries, but he's been productive and consistent when available. He's averaging 18.8 points, 3.5 rebounds and 2.2 assists per game in that span, and he should remain a reliable fantasy alternative every time the Nets step on the hardwood.

Rotowire
Johnson provided 18 points (6-12 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 3-4 FT), six rebounds, three assists and one block in 30 minutes during Friday's 102-86 victory over the Heat.
The 28-year-old forward led the Nets in scoring on the night, as Brooklyn used a balanced attack that saw eight different players score between eight and 18 points. Johnson has looked good in two games since returning from an ankle injury that sidelined him for six contests, particularly from downtown, as he's gone 6-for-15 from three-point range.

Nets' Cameron Johnson: Puts up 17 points in return
Rotowire
Johnson (ankle) recorded 17 points (5-13 FG, 3-9 3Pt, 4-4 FT), three rebounds and two assists across 25 minutes in Wednesday's 119-102 loss to the Wizards.
Johnson was back in action for the Nets after missing the previous six games with a right ankle sprain. Though he endured a rough shooting night and had his minutes curbed in his return, Johnson still operated as a focal point on offense for Brooklyn and finished second to only Keon Johnson (25 points) in scoring. Assuming he's not moved prior to Thursday's trade deadline, Cameron Johnson should be locked into a high-volume role for Brooklyn for the rest of the season.
