James Johnson coming off Pacers' bench on Friday
Indiana Pacers forward James Johnson will play with the second unit Friday in the team's game against the Atlanta Hawks.
What It Means:
The Pacers are shaking things up in the wake of the injury to Tyrese Haliburton. Isaiah Jackson, who has been coming off the bench, will be elevated to the starting five on the wing. Johnson is headed to the bench in a corresponding move.
Our models project Johnson for 4.2 points, 2.3 rebounds, 1.5 assists and 10.5 FanDuel points across 12.1 minutes of action.
