Rival executives view Cam Johnson as a trade candidate this offseason due to Peyton Watson. Watson, a restricted free agent, is expected to receive offers sheets over $20 million annually. Moving Johnson would allow the Nuggets to keep Watson while maintaining cap flexibility.
Do we think Cam Johnson is a fit? Career 39.5% 3PT shooter on 6 attempts per game...
His $23M salary doesn't fit in the TPE this summer, but maybe there's a deal there with PJW/Gafford outgoing to another team? Lakers?
Seems a little steep for what he is, a pretty good player on a down year and about to turn 30. He is probably a better fit than PJ in the short term, but I would be looking to go younger if possible.
