Johnson has been playing a significant role since December, but Monday's performance was one of his best in a while. This was his highest-scoring night since he had 25 points on February 5, and it was only his third game with at least 20 points in March. The 23-year-old has shown some flashes of upside throughout the season, and he should continue to play a significant role for the rest of this season. However, it remains to be seen if he has the potential to be more than the beneficiary of a tanking team in Brooklyn.
Cameron Johnson and Noah Clowney are sidelined, while Russell and Claxton are back after missing Saturday's game. Wilson will also return to the starting lineup, which will push Tyrese Martin back to the bench after he started in place of Russell against the Wizards.
Keon Johnson scored 24 points and the Brooklyn Nets rallied from 10 points down in the fourth to beat the Dallas Mavericks 113-109 on Monday to win consecutive games for the first time since the All-Star break.

The Nets are without D'Angelo Russell and Nic Claxton, opening up two spots in the starting lineup. Martin will replace Russell, which also raises Keon Johnson's fantasy ceiling. As for Claxton, he'll be replaced in the lineup by Clowney, who is a must-stream player, especially with Day'Ron Sharpe also out.
