Keldon Johnson News, Rumors, Updates - San Antonio Spurs

Solid contributions in return Johnson (calf) totaled 11 points (5-9 FG, 1-2 3Pt), five rebounds, four assists and two steals across 29 minutes in Thursday's 133-126 overtime win over the Hawks.

Impact Johnson had missed the Spurs' last two games with a left calf strain, but he wasn't operating on any sort of playing-time restriction Thursday. He led the San Antonio bench in minutes and delivered an unusually well-rounded line, as he had been averaging 1.6 assists and 0.8 steals per contest heading into the day. Johnson could end up sticking in a 25-to-30-minute role now that he's healthy again, but it'll likely take an injury to one of San Antonio's starters for him to see enough usage to re-emerge as a must-roster player in 12-team points or category leagues.

Posts double-double in win Johnson closed with 17 points (6-13 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 3-4 FT), 11 rebounds and three assists over 31 minutes during Thursday's 118-105 win over the Trail Blazers.

Impact Johnson set his season high in rebounds while posting his second-highest mark in points on the season. The 25-year-old has taken a backseat in a reserve role this year, though his recent production and the injury of Jeremy Sochan (thumb) bodes well for his playing time moving forward. In his last five regular-season outings, Johnson has averaged 15.0 points, 6.4 rebounds, 1.0 assists and 0.8 steals across 27.0 minutes per game while shooting 51.9 percent from the field.
