Johnson (knee) is considered questionable for Monday's game against the Bulls, Evan Sidery of LockedOn Suns reports.
EDGE Analysis
Johnson has already missed the last two games with a sore right knee, but it's somewhat encouraging that the team will wait to see how he feels closer to game-time before making a decision. Prior to the injury, Johnson had averaged 13.2 points, 4.8 assists and 4.6 rebounds over his last five games.

EDGE Analysis
Johnson will miss a second straight game with right knee soreness. During Friday's contest, Troy Daniels drew the start, and there's a strong chance he'll get the nod again.

Johnson delivered 10 points (2-9 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 6-8 FT), five assists and four rebounds across 35 minutes in the Suns' 115-111 win over the Warriors on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
Johnson scuffled badly from the field, but a solid showing from the charity stripe and typically serviceable contributions elsewhere led him to an acceptable final line. Johnson hasn't been very reliable in terms of night-to-night offensive production since joining the Suns at the deadline, but he may be starting to pick up the pace in that regard. Factoring in Sunday's line, he's now posted double-digit scoring efforts in four straight games, and in six of his last seven contests overall.

Johnson had 14 points (4-11 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 5-6 FT), seven rebounds, seven assists, and one block in 32 minutes during Saturday's 127-120 loss to Portland.
EDGE Analysis
Johnson continued to flirt with standard league relevance Saturday, finishing the game with a nice well-rounded line. He is locked in as the starting point guard and the playing time is typically there no matter the scoreline. The assured minutes certainly give him an advantage over other fringe players, and he is worth a long look if you need point guard numbers heading into the final weeks of your season.

Johnson scored a game-high 29 points (10-16 FG, 4-6 3Pt, 5-6 FT) while adding five rebounds, four assists, two steals and a block in 35 minutes during Saturday's 120-112 loss to the Hawks.
EDGE Analysis
It's easily Johnson's best performance since coming over from the Heat -- in fact, he'd only scored a total of 22 points in his first four games with the Suns. With Phoenix now having lost 17 straight games and playing for nothing but draft lottery odds, expect Johnson to continue seeing big minutes as the coaching staff evaluates whether he has a place in the club's rebuilding plans.

Johnson totaled 5 points (1-7 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 3-4 FT), eight rebounds, five assists, two steals and two blocks over 33 minutes in the Suns' loss to the Cavaliers on Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
In four games with the Suns, Johnson has made just seven of his 34 shot attempts for an abysmal 20.6 percent shooting from the floor. He only made one shot in Thursday's loss, though his night was salvaged by moderate production in other categories. Johnson will eventually shoot himself out of this slump, but fantasy owners will have to rely on his rebounds, assists, steals and blocks in the meantime.

Johnson (ankle) tallied just three points (1-6 FG, 1-4 3Pt), five rebounds, four assists and one steal across 27 minutes in the Suns' 134-107 loss to the Clippers on Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Johnson's aching ankle may have certainly had something to do with Wednesday's reduced output, but the 26-year-old has now struggled through his first three games since arriving via trade from the Heat. Johnson has scored a total of 17 points across an average of 29.0 minutes in those contests, shooting an unsightly 22.2 percent in the process. Naturally, Johnson has proven to be a more reliable source of offense than what he's shown thus far, and the Suns' lack of options at the point guard position are likely to continue affording him a solid amount of run following the All-Star break. The extended time off over the next week-plus is likely to do Johnson some good from both a health and acclimation standpoint.
