Returns with nine points Johnson had nine points (4-11 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 1-2 FT), three assists and two rebounds across 31 minutes in Saturday's 80-73 OT victory over Duke.
Impact Johnson was held out last Tuesday against Notre Dame due to an unspecified, non -COVID-related illness, but was back in action for the all-important ACC matchup. He did take a backseat to leading scorer Carlik Jones (25 points), but nonetheless was one of three Louisville players to put up double-digit attempts from the field. Johnson and the Cardinals close out ACC regular season play with a pair of tough matchups against Virginia Tech and Virginia.

Starting against Duke Johnson is starting Saturday's game against Duke.
Impact Johnson missed the Cardinals' last game due to a non-COVID-19 related illness, but he'll be back in the starting lineup Saturday. He should provide a major boost against the Blue Devils following his one-game absence.

Will be available against Duke Johnson (undisclosed) will be available for Saturday's game against Duke, according to Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports.
Impact Johnson was dealing with a non-COVID-related illness but is expected to return Saturday, and he should provide a major boost to the team's offense. The sophomore enters Saturday averaging 12.7 points, 5.9 rebounds, 3.4 assists and 1.1 steals over 34.8 minutes per game.

Should play Saturday Johnson (undisclosed) participated in practice Thursday and is expected to take the floor Saturday against Duke, Jody Demling of 247Sports.com reports.
Impact Johnson's return would be a major boon for the Cardinals in what is a game to circle on the calendar despite Duke's struggles this season. The Blue Devils are, however, coming off of four straight wins, so Johnson's availability in the backcourt becomes ever more important. The sophomore enters Saturday averaging 12.7 points, 5.9 rebounds, 3.4 assists and 1.1 steals over 34.8 minutes per game.

Sitting out Tuesday Johnson will miss Tuesday's game due to a non-COVID illness, Shannon Russell of The Athletic reports.
Impact On a positive note, Johnson doesn't seem likely to be sidelined for a long time given the reason behind his absence. Still, the Cardinals will be down another big piece Tuesday, and it will likely result in extra minutes for Charles Minlend. Johnson's next chance to take the floor arrives Saturday at Duke.

Absent from warmups Johnson is not on the floor for the Cardinals' initial warmups ahead of Tuesday's game against Notre Dame, Shannon Russell of The Athletic reports.
Impact Johnson is just a game removed from a 24-point, 10-rebound effort against Georgia Tech, so losing his services for Tuesday's game could be a big blow for a Cardinals team looking to continue building its postseason resume. With David Nickelberry (illness) also potentially out, the Cardinals could be sorely lacking some backcourt depth Tuesday.

Impact Johnson paced the Cardinals in this win, and he also recorded his sixth straight game scoring 10 or more points. The sophomore is averaging 17.0 points, 6.5 rebounds and 4.5 assists over that six-game stretch.

Extends double-digit scoring run Johnson scored 17 points (5-10 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 4-5 FT) while adding seven rebounds, four assists and a steal in 40 minutes during Saturday's 62-59 win over Kentucky.
Impact Johnson ended as Louisville's second-highest scorer since Carlik Jones posted 20 points, but Johnson has surpassed the 10-point mark in five straight games and has scored exactly 17 points in three of his last four contests. That scoring ability hasn't gone unnoticed and he remains one of the focal points of the team's offensive scheme. Louisville's next scheduled game will come on Jan. 2 at Boston College.
