Miami's Tyler Johnson exits Monday's game early with a left leg injury

Miami Heat guard Tyler Johnson was helped off the court with a wheelchair after suffering an ugly looking leg injury on Monday.

What It Means:

Johnson got his legs tangled with Chicago Bulls' center Robin Lopez and landed awkwardly. He immediately grabbed his left leg/knee and was unable to put any pressure on his leg, needing the wheelchair to leave the floor. The injury has the potential to be serious, further decimating a Heat backcourt. Wayne Ellington would likely join the starting lineup with Johnson out.

Johnson's day finished with 10 points, 1 rebounds, and 3 assists in 20 minutes for 13.7 FanDuel points on Monday.
