The Phoenix Suns will be without forward Cam Johnson for the foreseeable future.
The Suns announced on Sunday that Johnson will undergo surgery to repair a torn meniscus in his right knee. The Suns didn’t provide a timetable for his return, either, only saying that Johnson would be “out until further notice.”
Johnson sustained his injury in the first quarter of the Suns’ 108-106 loss to the Portland Trail Blazers on Friday while running down the court. Johnson appeared to try and plant his leg behind him in order to turn the other way, but he landed awkwardly and immediately started hopping in pain. He then limped off the court very slowly before walking back to the locker room. Johnson did not return to the game.
Cam Johnson is out for the rest of the game with a knee injury after he went to the locker room midway through the first quarter. Here is what Al McCoy and Tim Kempton saw.
