Tar Heels in NBA: Cam Johnson scores 38, makes history with game-winning 3 at buzzer

Posted Mar 5, 2022
Who needs All-Stars Chris Paul or Devin Booker when you have the clutch Cameron Johnson? Johnson did it all for league-leading Phoenix on Friday night, scoring 38 points and nine 3-pointers, both career-highs, in only 28 minutes off the bench. He banked in a game-winning, buzzer-beating 3 to push the host Suns to a 115-114 victory over New York. (Tar Heel Tribune)
