4 years agoBrooklyn Nets forward Alize Johnson made his debut for his short-handed team on Wednesday and took full advantage of the opportunity. Johnson put up a monster line with 23 points and 15 rebounds, chipping in three assists and two steals for good measure. The 24-year-old was signed to a 10-day contract on Sunday, though it seems like he has earned more opportunities with this performance. However, it's worth noting that James Harden (neck) and Blake Griffin (knee) were both out for this contest, so Johnson's role will likely be a bit murkier when Brooklyn has a fully stocked rotation. That said, Johnson fits the bill as a small-ball power forward for the Nets starved front court, so he could stick around for a bit, making him worth monitoring in deep leagues.--Tim Capurso
