Jalen Johnson Downgraded To Out On Wednesday
9 months agoAtlanta Hawks forward Jalen Johnson (ankle) was already listed as doubtful, so he wasn't expected to play against the Portland Trail Blazers in the first place. Now, it's official and Johnson will not suit up on Wednesday night. Since the team is already missing Trae Young (finger) and Saddiq Bey (knee), losing Johnson is going to take an even bigger chunk out of their offensive firepower. De'Andre Hunter will probably move into the starting five along with Vit Krejci and Bogdan Bogdanovic. Hunter and Bogdanovic would serve as the better streaming options, but Krejci could provide some stats given the added opportunities if needed.
