Nets' Keon Johnson: Puts up 12 points Friday
Johnson logged 12 points (4-9 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 1-1 FT), two rebounds, one assist and one block over 23 minutes during Friday's 135-119 loss to the Grizzlies.
Johnson scored in double digits for the first time since moving to the starting lineup Dec. 2, and this was certainly a step in the right direction after struggling with his shot in recent games. In his four starts, Johnson is averaging 7.5 points, 2.5 rebounds and 1.5 assists per game while shooting 31.3 percent from the floor, so he needs to improve in the efficiency department to boost his fantasy stock.

Nets' Keon Johnson: Starting Monday vs. Bulls
Johnson will enter the starting lineup for Monday's game against the Bulls, C.J. Holmes of the New York Daily News reports.
Johnson will receive his first start as a member of the Nets, with his last start coming in the 2021-22 campaign with Portland. Across his last five outings, the 22-year-old guard averaged 9.0 points, 3.0 rebounds and 1.0 assists across 24.0 minutes per contest while shooting 39.1 percent from the field.

Nets' Keon Johnson: Steps up off bench in defeat
Johnson totaled 12 points (5-13 FG, 2-8 3Pt), four rebounds, two assists and two steals over 32 minutes during Sunday's 100-92 loss to the Magic.
Johnson saw north of 30 minutes off the bench, using that time on the court to finish as one of four Nets players with a double-digit point total while swiping a team-high-tying pair of steals as well. Johnson has reached double figures in scoring in four outings this season, doing so in two straight contests while connecting on at least two threes in both of those outings.

Nets' Keon Johnson: Scores in double figures
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.

Nets' Keon Johnson: Scores 12 in limited playing time
Johnson totaled 12 points (5-6 FG, 2-2 3Pt), three rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal in nine minutes during Friday's 120-112 victory over Chicago.
Despite playing just nine minutes during Friday's win, Johnson managed to connect on five of six field-goal attempts and tied Nic Claxton as the Nets' third-leading scorer behind Cam Thomas (32) and Cameron Johnson (14). K. Johnson has cracked 10-plus minutes just twice this season while coming off the bench, but he could see more playing time Sunday against Detroit if Ben Simmons (back) and Bojan Bogdanovic (foot) are unable to play.

Nets' Keon Johnson: Good to go Wednesday
Johnson (ankle) will play in Wednesday's preseason contest against Philadelphia, Brian Lewis of the New York Post reports.

Nets' Keon Johnson: Battling ankle issue
Johnson was held out of Monday's preseason game against the Wizards due to a mild ankle sprain, Sharif Phillips-Keaton of USA Today reports.
This appears to be a minor bump in the road for Johnson, who reportedly worked out Sunday, per Phillips-Keaton. The team expects Johnson to be able to return to action soon, so he'll be considered day-to-day leading up to Wednesday's exhibition in Philly.

Nets' Keon Johnson: Comes off bench for 14 points
Johnson recorded 14 points (5-13 FG, 2-8 3Pt, 2-3 FT), six rebounds and four assists across 21 minutes in Tuesday's 115-106 preseason loss to the Clippers.
Johnson appears destined for reserve work after his results in the G League and Summer League earned him a full-time spot. The 22-year-old guard would be in line for more minutes if Ben Simmons or Cam Thomas struggle out of the gate.

Nets' Keon Johnson: Inks multi-year deal with Brooklyn
The Nets and Johnson agreed to terms on a multi-year contract Saturday, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.
Johnson spent the 2023-24 season on a two-way contract and appeared in just five games with the Nets. However, the 21-year-old was excellent in the G League, averaging 17.7 points, 5.7 rebounds, 3.5 assists and 1.1 steals in 41 regular-season games while leading the Long Island Nets to the G League finals. The 22-year-old also showed well enough in Summer League to earn a multi-year deal with the rebuilding Nets.

Nets' Keon Johnson: Ready to contribute
Johnson is available for Wednesday's game against the Bucks, NBA freelance journalist Billy Reinhardt reports.
The Nets are resting Nic Claxton (ankle), Cameron Johnson (knee) and Spencer Dinwiddie (not injury related) on Wednesday, while Lonnie Walker (hamstring) and Ben Simmons (back) remain out, so Johnson, Armoni Brooks, Noah Clowney and Dariq Whitehead will all be available versus Milwaukee and could crack the rotation. Johnson has yet to appear in an NBA game this season.

Nets' Keon Johnson: Inks deal with Brooklyn
The Nets signed Johnson to a two-way deal on Tuesday, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.
Johnson averaged 4.7 points, 1.5 assists and 1.1 rebounds in 10.4 minutes across 40 games in 2022-23 for the Trail Blazers. The No. 21 pick in the 2022 NBA Draft was traded to Phoenix this offseason and subsequently waived. With Brooklyn, Johnson is set to split time between the NBA and G League.

Suns' Keon Johnson: Provides defensive impact
Johnson recorded three points (1-4 FG, 1-3 3Pt), two assists, one rebound, one steal and one block in 15 minutes during Thursday's 123-100 preseason win over the Lakers.

Suns' Keon Johnson: Headed to Phoenix
Johnson (finger) was traded to the Suns on Wednesday as part of a three-team deal between Phoenix, Portland and Milwaukee, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports. The deal also sends Damian Lillard to Milwaukee, Jusuf Nurkic to the Suns, and Jrue Holiday and Deandre Ayton to Portland.
Johnson isn't a headliner of this blockbuster deal, but he's another depth option for a top-heavy Suns team. Across 40 appearances for Portland last year, the 6-foot-3 guard averaged 4.7 points, 1.5 assists and 1.1 rebounds in 10.4 minutes per game. Johnson is a raw prospect and likely won't carve out a substantial role to start 2023-24.
