Nets get Michael Porter Jr. from Nuggets for Cam Johnson in trade
Share this @internewscast.com

The Nets trade that felt inevitable for months finally happened.

On Monday, Cam Johnson was traded to the Denver Nuggets in return for Michael Porter Jr. and an unprotected first-round pick in 2032, according to ESPN. This move provides Denver with another scoring talent, as Johnson’s reputation for 3-point shooting will complement Nikola Jokic, bolstering their prospects for another playoff push after their exit in the second round.

Johnson originally joined Brooklyn with Mikal Bridges when the trade for Kevin Durant occurred in 2023. As the Nets began their rebuilding phase, Johnson emerged as one of the more seasoned players on the roster.

Last season, Johnson became their go-to scorer when Cam Thomas was limited due to injury, averaging a career-high 18.8 points per game.

Michael Porter Jr., a 27-year-old who was a first-round selection in the 2018 NBA Draft, contributed an average of 18.2 points and 7.0 rebounds per game for Denver last season. He played a pivotal role in the team’s 2023 NBA Championship victory.
