Jazz's Joe Johnson: Will start Thursday
Johnson will get the spot start in Thursday's tilt against the Warriors, Anthony Slater of the Bay Area News Group reports.
Analysis:
The Jazz will be without four of their regular starters Thursday, including starting small forward Gordon Hayward. Johnson has averaged 1.2 points, 2.4 rebounds, 3.3 assists across 30 minutes in seven starts this season. Given their lack of backcourt and wing depth, Johnson presumably will be in line for a relatively heavy workload Thursday.
