Pelicans' James Johnson: Won't return Monday

Johnson won't return to Monday's contest against the Kings due to right wrist soreness.

Johnson played 15 minutes of action before having to leave early after experiencing discomfort in his right wrist. Thus, the veteran will presumably be deemed questionable for the Pelicans' next game against New York on Wednesday. Johnson is currently averaging 6.9 points and 3.2 rebounds this season.
