The saga of Stanley Johnson continues.
Johnson was removed from the rotation as Stan Van Gundy went to Reggie Bullock in search of shooting. Bullock then went down with a torn meniscus. That should have cleared the way for Johnson to find his way back into the rotation, but Van Gundy instead opted to play Darrun Hilliard.
Johnson finally broke his silence about his lack of playing time and Rod Beard of The Detroit News relayed his comments in a tweet.
