Johnson provided 12 points (5-12 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds, three assists and one steal across 29 minutes during Thursday's 91-83 loss to the Cavaliers.

EDGE Analysis

Johnson has seen a bump in workload over the past five contests with Derrick Favors (knee) out with a bone bruise. Coach Quin Synder has played him an average of 27.4 minutes per game across that stretch, and Johnson is responding by averaging 11.8 points and 3.2 rebounds per contest on 44.0 percent from the field and 33.3 percent from distance. While it seemed likely that Trey Lyles would be the main beneficiary of Favors' absence, it appears that Johnson is the one who will garner the most significant minutes bump.

Johnson will rejoin the starting five for Wednesday's game against the Pistons, Jazz radio play-by-play announcer David Locke reports.

EDGE Analysis

Johnson came off the bench Monday against the Clippers, but started the two previous games. The Jazz will once again go with a smaller lineup Wednesday, which will likely send Boris Diaw back to the bench. In 10 previous starts this season, Johnson has averaged 13.2 points, 3.1 rebounds and 2.6 assists across 29.0 minutes per game.

Johnson will return to the bench for Monday's game against the Clippers.

EDGE Analysis

Johnson has started the last two games in place of Derrick Favors (knee), as the Jazz have opted to go with a smaller lineup. However, coach Quin Snyder will go with a bigger lineup ahead of Monday's game to match up with Blake Griffin of the Clippers, so he'll insert Boris Diaw into the starting lineup at power forward and bring Johnson off the bench. Johnson saw just 19 minutes on Saturday while drawing the start, so despite moving to the bench, he likely won't see a huge drop in minutes.

Johnson will start at power forward for Wednesday's game against the Rockets.

EDGE Analysis

Johnson has missed the last three games with a groin strain, but was cleared to play earlier Wednesday. He's now going to enter the starting lineup at power forward, as Derrick Favors (knee) is sitting out and the Jazz are opting to go smaller to match up with the Rockets. Johnson should be in line for increased minutes, although this is likely just a one-game experiment.

Johnson (groin) will play in Wednesday's matchup with the Rockets, Jonathan Feigen of the Houston Chronicle reports.

EDGE Analysis

Johnson has been sidelined for the last three games because of a groin strain, but after going through pregame warmups without any existing issues, he's officially good to go. There's a chance the Jazz opt to go with a smaller lineup and move Johnson into the starting lineup with injuries to both George Hill (toe) an Derrick Favors (knee), so that will be a situation to monitor up until tip-off.

Johnson (groin) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's matchup with the Rockets.

EDGE Analysis

Johnson has missed each of the last three games while working back from a groin injury and has yet to be given the green light for a return despite the added time off. He's currently been given a questionable designation heading into Wednesday, but he'll likely need to test out the injury during pregame warmups before a final word on his availability is given. If Johnson is ultimately held out, Joe Ingles and Alec Burks would likely pick up the extra reserve minutes.

Johnson (groin) has been ruled out of Monday's game against the Pelicans, Jody Genessy of Deseret News reports.

EDGE Analysis

Johnson missed the Jazz's past two games due to his groin injury and it appears he isn't quite over the ailment. Gordon Hayward, Rodney Hood, Joe Ingles, and Alec Burks will all be in the mix for some extra minutes with Johnson out once again. Looking ahead, Johnson's next chance to play will be Wednesday against the Rockets.

Johnson (groin) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Kings, Jazz radio play-by-play broadcaster David Locke reports.

EDGE Analysis

Johnson will miss his second straight game with the sore left groin, but his absence will be cushioned by the return of Rodney Hood (knee), who will rejoin the starting five following a two-game absence. Look for Hood, Gordon Hayward, Joe Ingles and Alec Burks to cover all the minutes on the wing with Johnson out of the mix for playing time.

Johnson (groin) appears unlikely to play Sunday against the Kings, Tony Jones of the Salt Lake Tribune reports.

EDGE Analysis

The Jazz are labeling Johnson as questionable for Sunday's contest after he sat out Friday's win over the Nets with the sore left groin, but given the quality of the opponent, it looks like coach Quin Snyder may opt to give the veteran another day off and lean more on some of his other reserve wings in what should be a winnable game. It appears Rodney Hood (knee) is likely to return to action, so the Jazz should have enough depth on hand at the wing to get by without Johnson.

Johnson (groin) is questionable for Sunday's contest against the Kings.

EDGE Analysis

Johnson was a last minute scratch in Friday's game against the Nets due to soreness in his left groin, but his injury wasn't thought to be major. If he's held out or limited against the Kings look for Joe Ingles and Alec Burks to see some extra play time once again.
