Jazz's Joe Johnson: Will come off bench Wednesday

Johnson will play a reserve role in Wednesday's matchup against the Knicks, Jazz's radio announcer David Locke reports.

Analysis:

The Jazz will opt to go with a bigger lineup for this matchup by inserting Boris Diaw at power forward, and sliding Gordon Hayward down to small forward. Johnson started the previous four games, as the Jazz opted to go with a smaller lineup. However, they lost their last three, which may have played a factor in the bigger lineup Wednesday. Johnson will presumably see a slightly lighter workload off the bench.
