Cam Johnson sees long-term Nets contract as opportunity to ‘prove it’
Posted Aug 8, 2023
Cameron Johnson got his generational-wealth NBA contract this offseason with the Brooklyn Nets. But he insists the life-changing money won’t change him or his approach. "Same approach: Just get better," Johnson said at Team USA practice in Las Vegas. "The main thing I’ve always felt since I’ve been in the league is just to prove it. To prove it every day."
