Tough news for the Atlanta Hawks and their fans on Saturday night. In addition to trailing the New Orleans Pelicans, they also have an injury to deal with. Star forward Jalen Johnson suffered a left ankle injury, and the team says he is questionable to return.

Before exiting, Johnson contributed 13 points, seven rebounds, and four assists in 28 minutes. With the Pelicans leading big, it’s unlikely we see Johnson for the remainder of this game

Stay tuned to DraftKings Network for live updates on his injury status.
