Heat's James Johnson: Double-doubles Saturday vs. Wizards

Johnson contributed 15 points (6-14 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 3-4 FT), 11 rebounds, five assists, one steal and one block across 37 minutes during Saturday's 106-103 victory over the Wizards.

Analysis:

Johnson has started his third straight game with Luke Babbitt (hip) sidelined, recording his second consecutive double-double. He's demonstrated his ability to be a versatile all-around player on both ends of the floor, capable of recording regular double-doubles, as well as flirting with triple-doubles, while collecting an impressive total of defensive statistics. He should probably be owned in the majority of year-long fantasy leagues and makes for a quality DFS option due to his ability to stuff the stat sheet. Even when Babbitt returns, expect Johnson to see around 25 to 30 minutes per game off the bench.
