Sidelined Saturday Johnson (shoulder) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Warriors.

Impact Johnson will miss his first game of the month due to left shoulder inflammation, snapping a consistent run of elite production. The versatile forward has been a triple-double threat every time he takes the floor, falling just one assist shy of his 14th triple-double of the season in Wednesday's win over Dallas. With Johnson sidelined, Jonathan Kuminga is the primary candidate to enter the starting lineup and should see a significant increase in usage.

Considered questionable Saturday Johnson (shoulder) is considered questionable for Saturday's game against Golden State, per Kevin Chouinard of the Hawks' official site.

Impact Johnson hasn't missed a game in March. However, he's now on the injury report because of left shoulder inflammation, putting that streak in jeopardy. If he can't suit up, Jonathan Kuminga (knee), who is available, would be the favorite to replace him in the rotation.

Comes close to triple-double Johnson provided 17 points (7-19 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 1-2 FT), 11 rebounds, nine assists and two steals over 37 minutes during Wednesday's 135-120 win over the Mavericks.

Impact By now, it shouldn't be surprising to see Johnson hover around triple-doubles every time he steps on the hardwood. Aside from ending just one assist away from recording what would've been his third consecutive triple-double, this was the sixth time that he ended just one assist away from such a feat. Johnson has 13 triple-doubles on the season, and he's been one of the most productive fantasy assets all season long due to his impressive, elite ability to fill the stat sheet with ease.

Triple-double vs. Milwaukee Johnson finished Saturday's 122-99 win over the Bucks with 23 points (10-20 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 1-2 FT), 12 assists and 10 rebounds over 35 minutes.

Impact Johnson once again did a little bit of everything during Saturday's win. He had two triple-doubles in his career prior to the 2025-26 regular season, but Saturday marked his 12th triple-double of the season (and second since the All-Star break). Johnson has taken a huge leap in his fifth year in the NBA, partly due to the absence (and subsequent trade) of Trae Young. Johnson has averaged 21.3 points, 9.0 rebounds, 7.3 assists, 1.3 threes and 1.3 steals over 32.9 minutes per game since the All-Star break.
