Resting Sunday
Johnson (rest) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Heat.
Analysis
With the Hawks locked into a top-six seed, Johnson and the rest of the starters will take a night off during the regular-season finale. After two injury-plagued seasons, Johnson was healthy in 2025-26 and posted a career-best campaign, averaging 22.5 points, 10.3 rebounds, 7.9 assists and 1.2 steals in 35.2 minutes across 72 regular-season games.

Could be rested Sunday
Johnson (rest) is listed as questionable for Sunday's regular-season finale against the Heat.
Analysis
Johnson has taken on an expanded role for the Hawks this season, especially since the departure of Trae Young (quadriceps) at the trade deadline. As such, they may opt to rest Johnson for Sunday's regular-season finale ahead of the Eastern Conference playoffs. Mouhamed Gueye, Jonathan Kuminga (knee) and Zaccharie Risacher would be candidates to start against Miami if Johnson is ruled out.

Struggles with shot
Johnson recorded 12 points (4-16 FG, 0-5 3Pt, 4-4 FT), 11 rebounds, six assists and one steal over 34 minutes before fouling out of Wednesday's 122-116 loss to the Cavaliers.
Analysis
This was a rare off night for Johnson, yet he managed to record his 49th double-double of the campaign. With 71 games played, Johnson is on pace to return second-round value in nine-category formats with 22.6 points, 10.3 rebounds, 7.9 assists, 1.3 steals and 1.7 three-pointers in 35.3 minutes per contest.
