  3D ago • By RotoWire

  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

  6D ago • By RotoWire

  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

  10D ago • By RotoWire

  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

  18D ago • By RotoWire

  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.

  23D ago • By RotoWire

  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.
