While the Kings have long been linked as one of the top trade suitors for Cam Johnson, it’s worth noting Sacramento has been resistant to parting with rookie guard Devin Carter in trade talks with teams, league sources told HoopsHype. Instead, a combination of Kevin Huerter and Trey Lyles with future first-round pick draft capital has been identified as Sacramento’s most consistent package when they’ve looked to upgrade the roster in trade talks with teams, according to NBA executives around the league who’ve spoken with HoopsHype. -via HoopsHype / January 23, 2025

Despite being in the midst of a rebuild, the Nets highly value Cam Johnson, who turns 29 in March. Brooklyn has a 0-10 record with Johnson out of the lineup.
