EDGE Analysis

This was Johnson's fourth straight 20-plus point appearance and it looks like he's taken the opportunity to make his case for a starting role on next year's roster while the usual backcourt is sidelined. Jackson would be a Rookie of the Year candidate if he had more opportunities on a better team, but the Kansas product has a tougher road in Phoenix. He'll continue churning out great stat lines in Phoenix's final two games.
