Cam Johnson Drawing Trade Interest From Rival Teams

Cam Johnson Drawing Trade Interest From Rival Teams centers on reports that the Denver Nuggets are exploring roster changes and may shop forward Cam Johnson this summer. Johnson was acquired last offseason from the Portland?—the article states he was traded to Denver for Michael Porter Jr. and a first-round pick as part of a cap-related move. In his first season, he averaged 12.2 points, 3.8 rebounds, and 2.4 assists while shooting .480 from the field and .430 from three-point range. He has one year remaining on his contract, set at $23 million for next season. HoopsHype’s Michael Scotto says interest spans teams including the Los Angeles Lakers, Boston Celtics, Miami Heat, Los Angeles Clippers, and Orlando Magic. With Denver navigating below the second apron, the article suggests Johnson’s trade value and remaining contract year make him a plausible candidate, amid speculation about Jamal Murray or Aaron Gordon as well. Free agency begins June 30.
