How does Cameron Johnson fit in with his new team, the Phoenix Suns?

Posted Jul 11, 2019

The Suns traded their number six slot to Minnesota and took Johnson with that pick. Many considered Johnson to be the best shooter in the draft, but almost no one predicted he would hear his name called that early. (Daily Tar Heel)
