The former UNC star finished the year with averages of 13.4 points, 4.3 rebounds and 2.4 assists per contest while shooting 44.6% from the field and 39.1% from the three-point range.
Recently, Chris Fedor of Cleveland.com (appearing on 92.3 The Fan) reported that the Cavs have interest in landing Johnson.
Fedor: “The Cavs have kept him on the radar, they like him. If he is available from the Brooklyn Nets, the Cavs will be involved in those conversations. There’s no doubt about that. The question becomes do they have the pieces to satisfy what Brooklyn would want in return for Cam?”
