Johnson registered 11 points (4-6 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds, one block and one steal across 27 minutes during Tuesday's 117-86 loss to the Hornets.
Johnson exceeded 20 minutes for the first time in the past four games, scoring in double digits for the fifth time in his young career. With Brooklyn manipulating its rotation on a nightly basis, it's hard to be too excited by this performance. Generally speaking, fantasy managers are better off focusing on other teams when it comes to streaming candidates.

Nets' Chaney Johnson: Gets extended run in second half
Rotowire
Johnson recorded 12 points (5-6 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-2 FT), seven rebounds, three assists and one steal over 27 minutes during the Nets' 121-92 loss to the Thunder on Wednesday.
The Thunder led by as many as 42 points during Wednesday's game, which prompted both teams to empty the bench in the fourth quarter. That gave Johnson the opportunity for an extended run, and the undrafted rookie out of Auburn capitalized by scoring 10 points in the second half while connecting on all four of his field-goal attempts. He has scored in double digits in back-to-back games and could see more playing time moving forward if Noah Clowney were to miss time, as the latter left in the first quarter of Wednesday's game due to a right wrist sprain.

Johnson (not injury related) is not available for Saturday's game against the Timberwolves.
Johnson signed a two-way pact with Brooklyn on Friday and has yet to join the team. His next opportunity to make his NBA debut will come Monday against the Warriors, though it wouldn't be surprising to see him head straight to the club's G League affiliate, the Long Island Nets. The undrafted rookie out of Auburn appeared in 16 G League games for the Cleveland Charge before latching on with Brooklyn, during which he averaged 12.8 points, 5.2 rebounds, 1.9 assists, 1.4 steals and 1.2 blocks in 25.5 minutes per contest.
