Joe Johnson Makes Surprising Return

Atlanta Hawks All Star Joe Johnson made a surprise return to action tonight following elbow surgery. Johnson was projected to miss 4-6 weeks, but came back in just 15 days. He played 37 minutes tonight, finishing with 16 points, 8 assists, and 5 rebounds.

The Breakdown
This is great news for Johnson owners and it doesn't look like Johnson will be eased back into action. He played his normal slate of minutes and put up his typical production. His shot was off tonight, but hopefully that improves with a few games and is not a related to the elbow. Make sure to get him back in your line up!
