A couple of weeks ago, Brandon wrote about how well Cam Johnson performed in the NBA Playoffs against the Lakers. Johnson is proving the doubters wrong as he cements his role in this Suns team that looks like it may finally deliver an NBA championship to both a title-starved city, and a Julius Hodge nut-punching, future Hall of Famer.
Since that article ran in Tar Heel Blog, Cam’s performance has gone up another level. The former UNC-wing has been absolutely unconscious from the field, and while he hasn’t had the same role or usage that he did as a 17-ppg scorer as a senior at Carolina, he has been providing the Suns with exactly what they need: timely shooting from a complimentary scorer.
