Hawks' Jalen Johnson (ankle) reportedly back Monday

Atlanta Hawks forward Jalen Johnson (right ankle sprain) will play on Monday against the Chicago Bulls, reports Shams Charania of The Athletic and Stadium.

What It Means:

Johnson is still listed as questionable, but it looks like he will return from a six-game absence. The Hawks haven't indicated if they will limit Johnson's minutes after the layoff, or if he will reclaim his starting spot from De'Andre Hunter.

numberFire's models project Johnson for 32.2 minutes and 32.7 FanDuel points on Monday. Per our NBA Heat Map, the Hawks' implied total (109.75) is No. 7 out of 12 active teams today.
