Tyler Johnson (knee) doubtful Thursday for Phoenix
Phoenix Suns guard Tyler Johnson (sore right knee) is doubtful to play on Thursday versus the Detroit Pistons.
Johnson appears to be headed for a fourth consecutive absence. Kelly Oubre (thumb) is also doubtful, so look for Devin Booker and Deandre Ayton to pick up the slack on offense. De'Anthony Melton and Mikal Bridges also stand to benefit.
Johnson is averaging 21.7 FanDuel points in 57 games this season. He's recorded 11.1 points, 4.0 rebounds, 4.2 assists, 1.1 steals, and 1.4 triples through 13 games for Phoenix.
