Fantasy Analysis
Johnson missed some time with a calf injury last season that limited to 57 games, but that was also due to the fact the Hawks were well out of the playoff race and the team looked to keep their top scorer healthy. That slight "injury risk" may have helped him slip a bit in drafts despite his 25.0 ppg scoring average a year ago. He's now averaged over 20 ppg in each of the last three seasons and Fantasy owners should consider him a sure-fire No. 1 Fantasy guard. (Updated 04/29/2008).
