Tar Heels in NBA: Cam Johnson leads Suns to win; Harrison Barnes scores 19

Posted Mar 3, 2022
Without Phoenix’s All-Star backcourt, some would have figured the Suns might have a tough time winning Wednesday. But they didn’t figure Cameron Johnson into the equation. After the Suns lost two straight games with Johnson in the starting lineup, he came off the bench to score 20 points and dish out four assists as they blew out Portland 120-90. (Tar Heel Tribune)
