Brooklyn Nets send home fans out with a bang, defeat Toronto Raptors 106-102

A hamstring injury derailed his preseason, then he got hurt on Opening Night, and was perpetually in and out of the lineup for the next six months. Four leg injuries: hamstring, calf, ankle and toe.
That’s not why Johnson drew the ire of Nets fans, but it was another strike on his record. And while even the harshest fans don’t view injuries as a personal failing but an unfortunate reality, discussion around Johnson’s missed time was at least based in reality; the five-year veteran has only played over 60 games one time in his career.
