Rotowire

Johnson finished the season strong with an efficient 23 points to lead the Spurs on Sunday. The 2019 first-round pick played exclusively off the bench after starting in 231 regular-season games in the four prior campaigns. He'll end the 2024-25 regular-season averaging 15.6 points, 5.4 rebounds and 2.2 assists across 28.6 minutes per game while shooting 35.2 percent from three-point range.

Spurs' Keldon Johnson: Ruled out for Friday
Rotowire
Johnson (ankle) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Suns.
The left ankle soreness is a new concern for Johnson, who is slated to miss just his second game since the All-Star break. Julian Champagnie, Harrison Ingram and Malaki Branham are all candidates for an uptick in playing time due to Johnson being sidelined. His last chance to suit up this season will come Sunday against the Raptors.

Spurs' Keldon Johnson: Hits for 21 points from bench
Rotowire
Johnson ended with 21 points (8-17 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 4-4 FT), eight rebounds, two assists and one steal over 31 minutes during Wednesday's 114-111 victory over Golden State.
Johnson tied Stephon Castle for a team-high 21 points as the Spurs played the spoiler and took one from the Warriors. Johnson has stepped back into a second-unit role in his sixth season with the Spurs, and the demotion has reduced his minutes and production. Veteran Harrison Barnes' resurgent play has kept Johnson where he is in the rotation. But an off-season shake-up could positively impact Johnson's fortunes, especially if he's shipped off elsewhere.

Spurs' Keldon Johnson: Questionable vs. Denver
Rotowire
Johnson (back) has been listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Nuggets, Paul Garcia of ProjectSpurs.com reports.
Johnson is in danger of missing Wednesday's game in Denver due to a back issue. San Antonio will already be without Devin Vassell (ankle), Jeremy Sochan (back) and Charles Bassey (knee), so the team will be shorthanded on the road. If Johnson cannot play Wednesday, the team will likely lean heavily on Julian Champagnie, Harrison Barnes and Malaki Branham to pick up the slack.

Spurs' Keldon Johnson: Leads team against Celtics
Rotowire
Johnson provided a team-high 23 points (9-12 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 3-3 FT), six rebounds and three assists across 34 minutes off the bench during Saturday's 121-111 loss to Boston.
It was Johnson's best scoring performance since he dropped 28 points on the Mavericks back on March 10. The 25-year-old forward has scored in double digits in 13 of 16 contests this month, averaging 14.4 points, 5.6 boards, 2.0 assists, 1.4 threes and 0.9 steals in 25.3 minutes a contest as the focal point of the Spurs' second unit.

Spurs' Keldon Johnson: Posts double-double
Rotowire
Johnson accumulated 17 points (7-16 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 10 rebounds and two steals in 27 minutes during Thursday's 124-116 loss to the Cavaliers.
Johnson recorded a double-double for the first time since Jan. 8, when he notched 24 points and 11 boards in a loss to the Bucks. However, the veteran continues to make an impact as a reliable second-unit scorer for San Antonio. He's scored in double digits off the bench in 12 of his 15 appearances during the current month, a stretch in which he's averaging 13.8 points, 5.6 rebounds, 1.9 assists and 0.9 steals per contest.

Spurs' Keldon Johnson: Inefficient outing in defeat
Rotowire
Johnson registered 10 points (3-9 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 4-4 FT), five rebounds and three assists across 22 minutes during Tuesday's 122-96 loss to Detroit.
Johnson racked up double-digit points for just the second time over his last four appearances. The 25-year-old forward has shot only 34.2 percent from the field in that four-game span. Johnson's inconsistency off the bench has limited him from a fantasy standpoint, though he has still logged at least 15 points and five rebounds in six of his 14 appearances this month.

Spurs' Keldon Johnson: Fills stat sheet off bench
Rotowire
Johnson contributed 11 points (4-10 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 3-3 FT), four rebounds, two assists, two blocks and two steals across 28 minutes during Monday's 125-109 loss to the Lakers.
Johnson didn't light up the boxscore, but he recorded an impressive outing across the board and finished with at least two tallies in each of the five major categories. The nature of a bench role limits Johnson's upside considerably, however, so fantasy managers should expect some inconsistency on a game-to-game basis. That said, he's scored in double digits in his last eight outings, averaging 15.9 points, 5.0 rebounds and 1.6 assists per game in that span, and he should continue to have increased usage, as De'Aaron Fox (finger) and Victor Wembanyama (shoulder) are out for the season.

Spurs' Keldon Johnson: Posts 19 points in victory
Rotowire
Johnson finished with 19 points (7-12 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 2-3 FT), five rebounds, two assists and three steals across 30 minutes during Saturday's 119-115 win over New Orleans.
Although the Spurs have lost Victor Wembanyama (shoulder) and De'Aaron Fox (finger) for the season, Johnson's second-unit slotting will likely persist. Johnson was demoted to backup duty midway through the season, and recent production from Harrison Barnes has kept him on the bench despite Wembanyama's absence. Saturday's solid production indicates that he will see more time due to the injury-depleted roster, but it will likely come off the bench.

Rotowire
Johnson had 28 points (10-16 FG, 4-6 3Pt, 4-5 FT), five rebounds and one steal in 29 minutes during Monday's 133-129 loss to Dallas.
Johnson tied his season high in points Monday, delivering an efficient performance while leading the second unit in scoring. Additionally, the 25-year-old finished as the club's second-leading scorer behind Harrison Barnes (29 points), albeit in a losing effort. Johnson has provided a consistent spark off the bench of late, recording double-digit points in 10 of his last 11 outings.

Johnson provided 13 points (6-10 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 1-2 FT), four rebounds and two assists across 25 minutes off the bench during Sunday's 141-124 loss to the Timberwolves.
The 25-year-old forward has emerged as a consistent source of offense from the second unit since Victor Wembanyama (shoulder) was lost for the season. Over the last 10 games, Johnson has scored in double digits nine times, averaging 15.5 points, 4.7 boards, 2.2 assists and 1.4 threes in 25.6 minutes a contest while shooting a blistering 60.4 percent from the floor and 40.0 percent from beyond the arc.

Johnson accumulated 22 points (8-13 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 6-6 FT), five rebounds, two assists and one steal over 29 minutes off the bench during Wednesday's 118-106 loss to the Rockets.
The 25-year-old forward continues to see elevated usage with Victor Wembanyama (shoulder) on the shelf. Johnson tied Stephon Castle for the Spurs' scoring lead Wednesday and has scored in double digits in five straight games, averaging 18.8 points, 3.8 boards, 2.4 assists, 1.4 threes and 0.8 steals in 26.4 minutes a contest without Wemby in the lineup.

Johnson supplied 18 points (7-9 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two rebounds, three assists and one steal across 24 minutes off the bench during Sunday's 114-96 loss to the Pelicans.
With Victor Wembanyama (shoulder) lost for the season, there's a huge hole in the Spurs' offense, and Johnson has been the biggest beneficiary so far. The 25-year-old forward has scored at least 15 points in each of the first three games since Wembanyama went down, averaging 20.3 points, 3.3 boards, 3.3 assists and 1.7 threes in 26.3 minutes a contest while shooting an unsustainable 77.4 percent from the floor.

Spurs' Keldon Johnson: Strikes for game-high 28
Rotowire
Johnson posted 28 points (11-13 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 5-9 FT), four rebounds and five assists across 30 minutes off the bench during Friday's 125-110 loss to the Pistons.
The 25-year-old forward led all scorers on the night, but it was in vain as De'Aaron Fox was the only other Spur to provide more than 10 points. Johnson could be one of the players who see their role and usage increase significantly in the wake of a season-ending shoulder issue for Victor Wembanyama -- after averaging just 15.4 minutes over the final five games before the All-Star break, Johnson has played at least 25 in the first two contests without Wembanyama in the lineup, averaging 21.5 points, 4.0 boards, 3.5 assists and 1.5 threes.

Spurs' Keldon Johnson: Provides spark off bench
Rotowire
Johnson chipped in 15 points (6-9 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 1-1 FT), four rebounds and two assists over 25 minutes during Thursday's 120-109 victory over Phoenix.
Johnson and Julian Champagnie both led San Antonip's bench in scoring Thursday with 15 points each. While Johnson had slowly been receiving reduced playing time as of late, Victor Wembanyama being ruled out for the remainder of the 2024-25 campaign due to deep vein thrombosis in his right shoulder could open up more minutes for Johnson if the Spurs opt to utilize more small-ball lineups.

Spurs' Keldon Johnson: Continues to trend down
Rotowire
Johnson finished Monday's 131-121 victory over the Wizards with four points (2-8 FG, 0-1 3Pt), four rebounds and one assist in 11 minutes.
From a fantasy perspective, Johnson appears initially to be the biggest loser of the De'Aaron Fox trade. The move has pushed rookie first-rounder Stephon Castle into a reserve role, significantly eating into the playing time of Johnson in San Antonio's second unit. Johnson has averaged 4.8 points, 2.5 rebounds and 0.5 steals in 15.2 minutes over four games since the deal, clouding the 25-year-old swingman's rest-of-season outlook.
