Jalen Johnson Questionable For Saturday Night Against Lakers
Atlanta Hawks forward Jalen Johnson (quad) is listed as questionable for Saturday night's matchup against the Los Angeles Lakers. Johnson is dealing with a right quad contusion. The 23-year-old has been a very important piece to Atlanta's rotation this season, averaging 20.6 PPG and 8.4 RPG. With Atlanta already ruling out Kristaps Porzingis, and Nickeil Alexander-Walker being listed as questionable as well, Johnson's production will be greatly missed if ruled out. With Atlanta on the second leg of a back-to-back, they will have a tough decision to make prior to tip-off. If Johnson misses, expect Mouhamed Gueye to get the start. In his one start in Johnson's spot this season he put up 11 points and six rebounds. Fantasy managers may have better options but DFS managers may find him to be an intriguing play if Johnson is ruled out.
