Cameron Johnson is an American professional basketball player currently with the Denver Nuggets of the NBA. He previously played college basketball for the Pittsburgh Panthers and North Carolina Tar Heels before being selected 11th overall in the 2019 NBA draft by the Minnesota Timberwolves, though he was immediately traded to the Phoenix Suns.

Johnson's career has been notable for his role as a reliable forward and three-point shooter. He reached the NBA Finals with the Phoenix Suns in 2021 and has been a consistent starter through his tenures with the Suns, Brooklyn Nets, and now the Nuggets. His movement between teams via trades has kept him in the spotlight as a valued player in the league.

Recently, Johnson has been featured in sports news due to his status following an arm injury. Multiple sports outlets reported in mid-November 2025 that he was cleared to return to play and was expected to be available for the Nuggets' upcoming game against the Chicago Bulls. While his return was confirmed, some coverage has also noted that his performance in Denver has been viewed by some analysts as falling short of expectations early in his tenure with the team.
