Johnson's aching ankle may have certainly had something to do with Wednesday's reduced output, but the 26-year-old has now struggled through his first three games since arriving via trade from the Heat. Johnson has scored a total of 17 points across an average of 29.0 minutes in those contests, shooting an unsightly 22.2 percent in the process. Naturally, Johnson has proven to be a more reliable source of offense than what he's shown thus far, and the Suns' lack of options at the point guard position are likely to continue affording him a solid amount of run following the All-Star break. The extended time off over the next week-plus is likely to do Johnson some good from both a health and acclimation standpoint.

Kennard saw a larger workload than usual in a 118-110 loss for the Pistons, and he also managed to finish in double figures for the third straight contest. The departures of Reggie Bullock and Stanley Johnson has led to a noticeable uptick in minutes for Kennard, although Bruce Brown still stands in the way of a starting role at small forward. Kennard is putting up 10.8 points, 3.2 rebounds and 3.0 assists over his last five matchups.

I don't like either guy very much. I would keep looking for more options.

Good luck!

Yeah, neither is great in terms of stat set. I'd probably lean Johnson just in case guys like Booker and Warren get turned off, but like Coach I'd prefer other potential grabs these days.
