On December 22, Beijing time, according to Sidery, the trade market for Nets sharpshooter Cameron Johnson began to take off, and as many as 10 teams have recently asked the Nets about his trade. The 10 teams include: Cavaliers, Grizzlies, Kings, Lakers, Magic, Mavericks, Nuggets, Thunder, Rockets, Warriors.
Sidery said Johnson's trade could happen in the coming weeks, especially if the Nets continue to win. After all, the Nets' current task is to swing the nail on the off course to improve their chances of getting the 2025 No. 1 pick.
So far this season, Cameron Johnson has played in 26 games for the Nets, averaging 19.2 points, 4.5 rebounds and 3.1 assists per game, shooting 48.9% from the field, 43.1% from three-point range, and 87.4% from the free throw line, all of which are career highs.
In a previous interview, Johnson had talked about trade rumors about himself. "I talked to the general manager and the coach," he said. I think the point of our conversation is, 'Hey, we'll tell you when we have something that we need to talk to you about. If you have any questions, our doors are always open for you, come and talk to us. That's it for now. ”
Johnson added: "Don't get carried away by things we can't control or things off the field, we have so many things to focus on on the field. ”
The Nets had previously set Johnson a price tag of a first-round pick and 1-2 potential stocks. If many teams have a strong interest in Johnson, it cannot be ruled out that the Nets may sit on the ground and raise the price. Previously, Sidery also said that a number of competitive teams are willing to pay a high price for Johnson.
