Cameron Johnson News, Rumors, Updates - Brooklyn Nets | FOX Sports

Headed to Denver The Nuggets acquired Johnson (back) in exchange for Michael Porter and a first-round pick on Monday, according to Shams Charania of ESPN.

Impact The Nuggets needed to add some much-needed floor spacing and a reliable three-point threat to their offensive scheme, and Johnson excels on both traits. The six-year forward connected on 39 percent of his threes on 7.2 attempts per game in the 2024-25 campaign while also averaging 18.8 points, 4.3 rebounds and 3.4 assists per game. Johnson should be an immediate starter for the Nuggets, but his fantasy stock will probably take a hit compared to his Brooklyn days since he'll now be the team's third option on offense (at best) behind the star duo of Nikola Jokic and Jamal Murray.

Won't play in regular-season finale Johnson (back) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Knicks, Brian Lewis of the New York Post reports.

Impact A lower back contusion will force Johnson to miss the final seven games of the regular season.

Johnson finishes the 2024-25 regular season averaging career highs in points (18.8), assists (3.4) and field-goal percentage (47.5 percent) while starting in all 57 games he appeared in.

Won't play Monday Johnson (back) will not play Monday against Dallas, Grant Afseth of DallasHoopsJournal.com reports.

Impact Johnson suffered his back injury during Saturday's win over the Wizards, and he was unable to shake his questionable tag for Monday's game. With Johnson sidelined, players such as Trendon Watford, Jalen Wilson and Ziaire Williams could see a bump in playing time.

Iffy to play Monday Johnson (back) is questionable for Monday's game against Dallas, Brian Lewis of the New York Post reports.

Impact Johnson is dealing with a lower back contusion that he sustained during Saturday's win over the Wizards. If the 29-year-old forward joins Noah Clowney (ankle) and Day'Ron Sharpe (knee) on the sideline Monday, Trendon Watford, Jalen Wilson and Ziaire Williams are candidates for a bump in minutes.

Doesn't return Saturday Johnson (back) registered 18 points (5-10 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 7-7 FT), nine rebounds and seven assists in 24 minutes during Saturday's 115-112 victory over the Wizards. He exited the game...

Impact Johnson departed the game with 3:21 left in the fourth quarter and didn't return to action. Hence, his status for Monday's game against the Mavericks is uncertain, and further tests will be needed to determine his status. Johnson delivered an impressive performance while he was on the court, though, and losing him for any amount of time would be a massive blow for the Nets since he's been the team's most consistent player throughout the entire campaign.

Goes to locker room Saturday Johnson (back) went to the locker room in the fourth quarter of Saturday's game against the Wizards, Erik Slater of ClutchPoints.com reports.

Impact Johnson took a hard fall after colliding with Colby Jones on a drive to the basket. Johnson remained on the floor for several minutes while being attended to by trainers but was eventually able to head to the locker room under his own power. He was replaced by Trendon Watford at the 3:21 mark in the fourth quarter, and it's unlikely that Johnson returns to Saturday's game.

Limited to 11 points Johnson closed Friday's 132-100 loss to the Clippers with 11 points (3-8 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 4-4 FT), six assists and one steal in 20 minutes.

Impact Johnson returned to the lineup after a one-game absence for rest purposes, and while the six assists were a nice outcome, he didn't do much on offense. That said, the entire Nets lineup looked overmatched in this game, and Johnson could not get into a groove due to how dominated Brooklyn looked. Johnson has been averaging 18.1 points, 4.8 rebounds and 4.6 assists per game since the beginning of March.

Fades injury report Johnson (rest) is not on the injury report ahead of Friday's game against the Clippers, C.J. Holmes of the New York Daily News reports.

He has averaged 18.7 points, 5.3 rebounds, 4.5 assists and 1.3 steals over 32.5 minutes per game since the beginning of March.
