Suns' Keon Johnson: Headed to Phoenix
Keon Johnson (finger) was traded to the Phoenix Suns on Wednesday as part of a three-team deal between Phoenix, Portland and Milwaukee, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports. The deal also sends Damian Lillard to Milwaukee, Jusuf Nurkic to the Suns, and Jrue Holiday and Deandre Ayton to Portland.Johnson isn't a headliner of this blockbuster deal, but he's another depth option for a top-heavy Suns team. Across 40 appearances for Portland last year, the 6-foot-3 guard averaged 4.7 points, 1.5 assists and 1.1 rebounds in 10.4 minutes per game. Johnson is a raw prospect and likely won't carve out a substantial role to start 2023-24.

Trail Blazers' Keon Johnson: Scores season-high 20 points
Keon Johnson closed with 20 points (7-15 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 3-4 FT), six assists and three rebounds in 31 minutes during Monday's 124-90 loss to the Pelicans.With Damian Lillard (calf) and Anfernee Simons (foot) still out, Johnson was poised for another increased role Monday, but Cam Reddish's (back) departure opened up even more opportunities for the second-year guard, who took advantage by scoring a team- and season-high 20 points while tying his season-best mark with six dimes. As long as the aforementioned trio remains sidelined, Johnson should continue to be on fantasy radars and might even slide into the starting lineup moving forward.
