Miami's James Johnson (knee) says knee 'kind of buckled' during warmups on Wednesday
Miami Heat forward James Johnson said that he missed Wednesday's game because his knee "kind of bucked" during pre-game warmups.
What It Means:
There was no word of an injury until roughly 30 minutes before game time last night. Okaro White drew the start at power forward in his place. On the plus side, Johnson is traveling with the team and is expected to play Friday against the Denver Nuggets.
Averaging 30.2 FanDuel points per game, Johnson is projected for 30 FanDuel points on 13.3 points, 5 rebounds and 4.2 assists in Friday's matchup with the Nuggets.
