ANALYSIS: Alize Johnson appeared in just one game for the Nets over the course of his first 10-day contract with the team. It was a big performance though for Johnson, as he racked up 23 points, 15 rebounds, 3 assists, and 2 steals in 33 minutes on the court. With Durant still sidelined, the Nets will extend a second 10-day to Johnson to provide the team with depth at the forward position until KD eventually returns.
