Sixers meet with Cam Johnson, a lights-out shooter and potential first-round steal at combine

Posted May 17, 2019
Cameron Johnson could end up being one of the steals of the June 20 NBA draft. The former North Carolina swingman is a lights-out shooter with limitless range. He’s a solid defender and a great character guy. Yet, the 6-foot-8, 205-pounder is projected to be a late first-round pick due to his age. The Western Pennsylvania native turned 23 on March 3.
