Washington recalled Johnson from the G League's Capital City Go-Go on Monday.
EDGE Analysis
Johnson has seen very limited run with the Wizards, but he's a young and polarizing prospect that Washington wants to develop. He will likely split time between the two clubs for the rest of the season.

Washington recalled Johnson from the G League's Capital City Go-Go on Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
This move was done following Tuesday's 120-110 loss to the Delaware Blue Coats, where Johnson put up 23 points (7-13 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 4-5 FT), two rebounds, an assist and a steal across 32 minutes before fouling out. Johnson will now return to the Wizards, where he has appeared in just 10 games so far this season.

Johnson was assigned to the G League's Capital City Go-Go on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
Johnson continues to bounce between the NBA club and the G League, as he was just recalled Friday. He should see the majority of his playing time for the Go-Go, where he's scored in double figures in all three of his appearances so far this season.

The Wizards recalled Johnson from the G League's Capital City Go-Go on Friday.
EDGE Analysis
Johnson is joining a banged-up Washington team as emergency depth ahead of Friday's game against the Cavaliers. The 2024 first-rounder is averaging just 4.5 minutes per game over 10 appearances in the NBA this year, so he'll be a candidate to head back to the G League following Friday's action.

Washington assigned Johnson to the G League's Capital City Go-Go on Monday.
EDGE Analysis
Johnson has been unable to break through Washington's rotation. Across 10 NBA appearances, he's averaging 4.5 minutes per contest.

Johnson recorded zero points (0-1 FG, 0-1 3Pt) and one rebound across six minutes during Friday's 119-86 loss to the Pacers.
EDGE Analysis
Johnson appeared for the first time in the past five games, bringing his total number of garbage time appearances to nine. Despite the fact that Washington clearly has nothing to play for, it doesn't appear as though Johnson is high on the priority list. He is a name to watch as the season progresses, but for now, he can be safely ignored in all redraft formats.

Johnson (ankle) is not on the injury report ahead of Tuesday's game against the Hawks.
EDGE Analysis
Johnson has missed Washington's last two games due to a right ankle contusion but is off the injury report, indicating he'll be available Tuesday. Even if healthy, the young guard isn't guaranteed meaningful playing time, as he's averaged just 4.8 minutes per game across eight appearances this season.

Johnson (ankle) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against Chicago.
EDGE Analysis
Johnson will miss a second consecutive game due to a right ankle contusion, but he'll have extra time to recover ahead of Washington's next contest Tuesday against Atlanta. The second-year guard has averaged just 4.8 minutes per game across eight appearances off the bench, so his absence won't impact the Wizards' backcourt rotation too much.

Johnson (ankle) is out for Friday's game against Toronto.
EDGE Analysis
Johnson is a late scratch with an ankle contusion. His next chance to play is Saturday in Chicago. Johnson's absence doesn't seem to open up a clear number of minutes for other members of the Wizards.

Johnson's rookie option was exercised by the Wizards for the 2026-27 season Thursday, Michael Scotto of USA Today reports.
EDGE Analysis
While Johnson and Cam Whitmore were acquired by the Wizards via trade, the front office has grouped them along with young players Alex Sarr, Bilal Coulibaly, Bub Carrington and Kyshawn George to be their stars of the future. Johnson has also yet to play in a game this season for longer than four minutes, but this move by the front office instills confidence that they want him on the roster for the long haul.
