Spurs' Keldon Johnson (conditioning) questionable again Tuesday
San Antonio Spurs small forward Keldon Johnson (conditioning) is questionable for Tuesday's game versus the New York Knicks.
What It Means:
Johnson cleared the league's health and safety protocols but is still working on his conditioning after not playing since February 14. He could be on a minutes limit even if the Spurs say Johnson can play, so Trey Lyles could remain in the starting lineup. LaMarcus Aldridge has been ruled out with a stomach illness on the second leg of San Antonio's back-to-back. Derrick White, Rudy Gay, and Devin Vassell all remain out due to league protocols.
Lyles is averaging 19.4 FanDuel points during Johnson's three-game absence. He has a salary of $4,000 on Tuesday's six-game slate.
