Cam Johnson's potential return to the Brooklyn Nets lineup on their upcoming Western Conference road trip is a welcome boost for the team. The forward has been sidelined for three games due to a sprained ankle, but coach Jordi Fernandez is optimistic about his recovery.
Cam Johnson could make his return to the Brooklyn Nets lineup on Friday, the start of their six-game Western Conference road trip, according to head coach Jordi Fernandez. Johnson has been sidelined for three games due to a sprained ankle sustained on January 2nd against the Milwaukee Bucks.
The Nets have missed Johnson's contributions, alongside other key players such as Cam Thomas (hamstring), Ben Simmons (calf soreness and lower back management), and D'Angelo Russell (shin) who have also missed recent games. Fernandez expressed confidence in Johnson's recovery, stating, 'We believe so. But, again, we’re not going to rush anything. Whenever he’s cleared and he feels good.' Johnson's potential return adds another layer of intrigue to the Nets' situation as trade rumors surrounding the forward have intensified. Teams like the Sacramento Kings, Indiana Pacers, and Oklahoma City Thunder have reportedly shown interest in Johnson ahead of the February 6th trade deadline.
