Samson Johnson News: Back in action Thursday

Johnson (back) tallied 15 points (5-5 FG, 3-4 FT) and five rebounds during 14 minutes in Thursday's 118-98 G League win over the Wisconsin Herd.

Johnson has recovered from the injury that had sidelined him since early November. He took advantage of every chance he had to make an offensive impact during his G League debut. While he's not yet guaranteed a significant role, Johnson is expected to be an alternative to Gabe McGlothan at center.
