Rotowire
Johnson (toe) recorded five points (2-10 FG, 1-5 3Pt), three rebounds, two blocks and one steal in 20 minutes off the bench Sunday in the Nets' 116-104 loss to the Lakers.
Johnson had started in both of his previous two appearances, but he came off the bench Sunday in his return from a three-game absence due to a left big toe sprain. According to Brian Lewis of the New York Post, Johnson wasn't on a minute restriction Sunday, but Nets interim coach Kevin Ollie may have elected to keep the 28-year-old's playing time in check anyway after he didn't have his usual deft touch from beyond the arc. The day wasn't a total loss for Johnson's fantasy managers, however, as he delivered some atypical production in the defensive categories.

Nets' Cameron Johnson: Absence to continue Wednesday
Rotowire
Johnson (toe) is out for Monday's game against Toronto and will remain sidelined for Wednesday's matchup with Washington, Evan Barnes of Newsday reports.
Johnson played in the first two contests of the Nets' four-game road trip, but after spraining his left big toe in Saturday's loss to the Knicks, he stayed behind in Brooklyn while the Nets traveled north of the border. The Nets will presumably reassess Johnson when they return from the trip Thursday before a determination on his status is made for Friday's game versus the Bulls. Dorian Finney-Smith will likely reclaim a spot in the starting five while Johnson is out, and rookie Jalen Wilson could step into an expanded role in the rotation.
