Johnson was a “full participant” at Saturday’s practice, head coach Jacque Vaughn said.
“I think his progression to get to this point has been pretty methodical and our approach getting him to feel comfortable when he’s back on the floor. So he’s done the work behind the scenes, to be in a position to practice today and hopefully he continues to. … We got three more days to get some more comfort and being on the floor and being out there with a different group.”Johnson was seen in the shootaround on Saturday, taking shots all around the 3-point arc and at the foul line.
How the Nets are installing new defenses and why their season depends on it: ‘Defensive coordinator with the headset on’ If Johnson is set to play by Wednesday, Vaughn said he intends to be “smart,” explaining that he will still maintain a cautious approach, limiting Johnson to shorter stretches. The Nets acquired Johnson from Phoenix in the blockbuster Kevin Durant trade in February. He spent three full seasons with the Suns.
