Jalen Johnson Questionable Against Milwaukee
8 months agoAtlanta Hawks forward Jalen Johnson (ankle) is questionable for Saturday's game against the Bucks. The 22-year-old has averaged 16.1 points and 8.6 rebounds this season, a significant upgrade from the 2022-23 campaign. He's missed the Hawks' previous five games because of a sprained ankle, and while he could still miss the meeting with Milwaukee, he's at least moving in a positive direction. At any rate, until Johnson is back in the lineup, De'Andre Hunter, coming off a 21-point, 13-rebound double-double in Thursday's win over the Celtics, should continue to benefit. Vit Krejci should remain with the first five until Johnson is healthy enough to play, although he's averaged only 6.7 points in 11 starts this season.
