Stanley Johnson sprains right shoulder in win vs. Cavaliers
Can't even have one nice win without some bad news.Stanley Johnson had to leave Monday night's 96-88 win against the Cleveland Cavaliers due to a shoulder injury. After the game, Dave Mayo of MLIVE and other beat writers said that Johnson has a right shoulder sprain and will be reevaluated on Tuesday.
I didn't see when it happened, but I heard it was all Channing Frye's fault. Johnson played through the injury and calmly knocked down an and-one that put the Pistons up 18 in the fourth quarter before he was removed from the game. Johnson sat momentarily before he got up and walked slowly to the locker room, holding his shoulder like one would if they were wearing a sling. It was concerning.
