Amir Johnson

Amir Johnson is back in Boston's starting lineup on Friday

Boston Celtics forward/center Amir Johnson (ankle) will start against the Atlanta Hawks on Friday night.

What It Means:

Johnson missed Wednesday's game but he will return from his one game absence tonight. It's a tough matchup against the Hawks, but Johnson should return to his normal minutes, limiting the value of Kelly Olynyk and Jonas Jerebko.

Our models expect Johnson to post 8.2 points, 6.1 rebounds and 2.0 assists over 25.3 minutes against the Hawks.
