Johnson was expected to break out as one of the NBA's rising stars this season after enjoying a promising rookie campaign, but the former Arizona standout has only averaged 4.4 points and 2.5 rebounds in 15 games this year.
Jon Leuer will likely see more playing time with Johnson out of action Friday night.
