Nuggets' Cameron Johnson: Logs 27 minutes in return
Johnson (knee) racked up 14 points (6-9 FG, 2-3 3Pt), four rebounds and one assist over 27 minutes during Saturday's 136-120 win over the Bulls.
Johnson was given the green light to return Saturday from a 23-game absence due to a right knee bone bruise. He rejoined the starting five and turned in a modest stat line, though he finished second on the Nuggets' with a plus-21 point differential. Johnson will likely have his minutes monitored for another game or two while he works his way back into top condition.

Nuggets' Cameron Johnson: Officially available
Johnson (knee) is available for Saturday's game against the Bulls.
Johnson was initially listed as questionable for Saturday's contest, but now it's been confirmed that the sharpshooting forward will return from a 23-game absence. Johnson, who hasn't played since Dec. 23, is averaging 11.7 points, 3.6 rebounds and 2.4 assists in 30.6 minutes per game across 28 regular-season appearances thus far.

Nuggets' Cameron Johnson: Expected to play Saturday
Head coach David Adelman said he expects Johnson (knee) to play in Saturday's game against the Bulls, Katy Winge of Altitude Sports reports.
Johnson hasn't played since Dec. 23 due to a right knee bone bruise but is trending in the right direction Saturday. While the 29-year-old swingman will likely operate under a minutes restriction following the extended absence, his return will leave fewer minutes available for Julian Strawther and Bruce Brown. Johnson is averaging 11.7 points, 3.6 rebounds and 2.4 assists in 30.6 minutes per game across 28 regular-season appearances thus far.

Nuggets' Cameron Johnson: Questionable for Saturday
Johnson (knee) is questionable for Saturday's game against the Bulls.
It's a significant upgrade for Johnson, who has been sidelined since late December with a right knee bone bruise. Fantasy managers should expect a strict minutes limit if Johnson is able to play. Even with Peyton Watson (hamstring) now sidelined, Julian Strawther and Jalen Pickett would appear to have the most to lose once Johnson is given the green light to suit up.

Nuggets' Cameron Johnson: Ruled out Wednesday
Johnson (knee) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Knicks.
Johnson hasn't played since Dec. 23 due to a right knee bone bruise and is without a clear timetable for a return. He should be considered doubtful for Saturday's game against the Bulls until Denver offers an update.

Nuggets' Cameron Johnson: Won't play Tuesday
Johnson (knee) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against Detroit, Brendan Vogt of TheDNVR.com reports.
Johnson will miss his 22nd consecutive game while managing a right knee bone bruise. Although Nuggets head coach David Adelman has suggested the wing could return before the All-Star break, this ruling pushes Johnson's next chance to suit up to Wednesday against New York at the earliest. In the meantime, Jalen Pickett and Spencer Jones have seen extended opportunities and should continue to see significant playing time versus the Pistons.

Nuggets' Cameron Johnson: Aiming for pre-ASB return
Nuggets head coach David Adelman told reporters Thursday that the hope is that Johnson (knee) is cleared to return before the All-Star break in mid-February, Vinny Benedetto of The Denver Gazette reports.
Johnson has been sidelined by a bone bruise in his right knee since Dec. 23, but the recent update indicates that the seventh-year pro could be cleared to return by early February. He started in each of his 28 outings prior to the injury, and his return would likely result in Jalen Pickett or Spencer Jones reverting to a bench role. Johnson is averaging 11.7 points per game in his first season with the Nuggets, which is his lowest scoring output since the 2020-21 season as a member of the Suns (9.6 points per game across 60 regular-season games).

Nuggets' Cameron Johnson: Remains out indefinitely
Johnson (knee) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Pistons.
Johnson hasn't played since Dec. 23 due to a bone bruise in his right knee but is expected to be re-evaluated soon. The 29-year-old forward should be considered week-to-week until the Nuggets offer an update on his progress.

Nuggets' Cameron Johnson: Still not cleared for contact
Johnson (knee) has yet to progress to contact work and remains out indefinitely, Vic Lombardi of Altitude Sports reports.
Johnson is still recovering from a bone bruise in his right knee and hasn't played since Dec. 23. The 29-year-old forward was initially given a re-evaluation timetable of four to six weeks, though it appears likely he'll be re-evaluated closer to the back end of that timeline. He should be considered week-to-week until the Nuggets offer an update on his progress.

Nuggets' Cameron Johnson: Sidelined for at least four weeks
Johnson will be re-evaluated in 4-to-6 weeks due to a right knee contusion, Shams Charania of ESPN reports.
Johnson was diagnosed with a bone bruise in his right knee after the Nuggets' loss to the Mavericks on Tuesday. The estimated timeline means the seventh-year wing will not return until late January at the earliest. Tim Hardaway and Bruce Brown are the top candidates to enter the starting lineup, and Peyton Watson and Julian Strawther should also take on increased roles for as long as Johnson is sidelined.

Nuggets' Cameron Johnson: To miss time with knee bone bruise
Johnson (knee) is expected to miss "some time," Shams Charania of ESPN reports.
After leaving Tuesday's 131-130 loss to the Mavericks, the forward has been diagnosed with a bone bruise in his right knee. The Nuggets begin a seven-game road trip with Saturday's matchup in Orlando following Thursday's home tilt against the Timberwolves, and it's unknown if Johnson will be able to return at some point during that swing. With Johnson likely sidelined for at least Denver's next few contests, both Tim Hardaway and Bruce Brown are worthy of roster consideration in most fantasy leagues.

Nuggets' Cameron Johnson: Unable to return Tuesday
Johnson sustained a sprained right knee in the fourth quarter of Tuesday's 131-130 loss to the Mavericks, per Vinny Benedetto of The Denver Gazette, and did not return.
Johnson landed awkwardly on his right leg and grabbed at his knee before limping to the locker room with 9:18 remaining in the final quarter. He was deemed questionable to return but never checked back in, finishing with eight points (3-7 FG, 2-3 3Pt), three assists and two rebounds in 24 minutes. The Nuggets are expected to provide an update on his status for Thursday's matchup against Minnesota by Wednesday night.

Nuggets' Cameron Johnson: Questionable to return Tuesday
Johnson is questionable to return to Tuesday's game against the Mavericks due to a right knee sprain, Vinny Benedetto of The Denver Gazette reports.
Johnson went to the locker room early in the fourth quarter after sustaining a knee injury, and it's unclear whether he'll be brought back to Tuesday's game. Bruce Brown and Tim Hardaway are poised for larger roles down the stretch if Johnson is not cleared to return.

Nuggets' Cameron Johnson: Leaves for locker room
Johnson exited to the locker room after sustaining an apparent right knee injury in the fourth quarter of Tuesday's game against the Mavericks, Mike Curtis of The Dallas Morning News reports.
Johnson landed awkwardly on his right leg and stayed down for an extended period. He grabbed at his knee before limping to the locker room with 9:18 remaining in the final frame. If the 29-year-old swingman is unable to return, Tim Hardaway and Bruce Brown will likely pick up the slack the rest of the way.

Nuggets' Cameron Johnson: Posts double-double in victory
Johnson recorded 19 points (6-9 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 4-4 FT), 11 rebounds, three assists and one block in 36 minutes during Thursday's 126-115 win over the Magic.
Johnson achieved his first double-double of the campaign as he recorded more than six rebounds in a game for the first time this season. He has retained consistent playing time lately, establishing himself as a regular starter and contributing mainly to the scoring column while Aaron Gordon (hamstring) and Christian Braun (ankle) remain sidelined.

Nuggets' Cameron Johnson: Continues playing heavy minutes
Johnson notched 13 points (5-9 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 1-2 FT), three rebounds and two assists in 43 minutes during Monday's 128-125 overtime win over the Rockets.
Johnson has performed better over the past month, though his lack of contributions in other areas of the box score remains frustrating for fantasy managers. The sharpshooter has averaged 15.0 points, 4.0 rebounds, 2.5 assists and 2.6 three-pointers in 35.9 minutes per contest in his last 13 outings, shooting 47.9 percent from deep over that stretch.

Nuggets' Cameron Johnson: Bounces back Thursday
Johnson finished Thursday's 136-105 win over Sacramento with 16 points (6-13 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 3-4 FT), three rebounds, one assist and one steal over 33 minutes.
Johnson stepped up in a game where Jamal Murray struggled, and the veteran forward has now scored at least 15 points in six of his last nine appearances. His shooting splits are also favorable. Over that nine-game stretch, Johnson is scoring 15.6 points per game while shooting 49.5 percent from the floor and 46.3 percent from three-point range. Johnson's overall season numbers might not be encouraging, but it's clear he's left his early-season shooting woes in the past.

Nuggets' Cameron Johnson: Struggles in victory
Johnson ended with nine points (3-7 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 1-2 FT), four rebounds, four assists and one steal in 34 minutes during Wednesday's 135-120 win over the Pacers.
Johnson failed to hit any great heights, scoring single digits for the first time in his past six games. After a slow start to the season, Johnson has been playing better of late, thanks largely to the fact that both Aaron Gordon (hamstring) and Christian Braun (ankle) are sidelined. Although his ceiling is somewhat limited, Johnson remains a must-roster player, at least until the Nuggets are fully healthy.

Nuggets' Cameron Johnson: Pops for season-high 28
Johnson chipped in 28 points (10-16 FG, 6-9 3Pt, 2-2 FT), six rebounds, one assist, one block and two steals over 38 minutes during Friday's 139-136 loss to San Antonio.
The 28 points were a season high for Johnson, topping the 20 points he scored just six days prior against the Kings. The 29-year-old wing is beginning to look more comfortable in a Denver jersey, and over the last six games he's averaging 18.0 points, 4.8 boards, 3.3 threes, 2.5 assists and 0.8 steals while shooting 58.7 percent from the floor and a dazzling 62.5 percent (20-for-32) from beyond the arc.
