Cameron Johnson

A master in the art of off-the-catch offense, on-court IQ, and floor spacing subtleties, Cam Johnson could locate an open shot in the middle of a phone booth if he needed to. Deliberately slow-paced during the Brooklyn Nets’ fastbreak, the fifth-year forward maneuvers into an unheralded aspect in his game, catching the already unprepared Atlanta Hawks defense by surprise with a nifty, traffic-splitting switch-hand dribble before gliding through the lane unguarded for a two-handed flush. In a must-win battle against the team just one peek above them in the Eastern Conference Play-In Race, Johnson couldn’t have picked a more precise time to deliver his campaign’s best performance to date. The star in the home blowout win on February 29, 2024, Johnson soared to the tune of a season-best 29 points (on just 15 shots), accompanied by four assists, two steals, and seven 3-pointers.
