Nets' 2023 trade of Kevin Durant still paying off with Michael Porter Jr. deal | amNewYork
"The trade adds another pick to the Nets' growing vault, bringing their total to 13 first-rounders and 18 second-rounders over the next seven years."
"For Denver, the trade upgrades their wing position with a similarly styled but cheaper player. Johnson's skill set should mesh well alongside Jamal Murray and Jokic."
Brooklyn Nets traded Cam Johnson to Denver Nuggets in exchange for Michael Porter Jr. and an unprotected 2032 first-round pick. This transaction boosts the Nets' draft assets to 13 first-rounders and 18 second-rounders over the next seven years. It addresses the Nets' salary floor goals and enhances their roster spacing. For Denver, acquiring Johnson is seen as a more cost-effective option that complements their existing players. The deal helps Denver reduce costs, saving $13 million in 2025 and $30 million over two years. Pogner's expiring contract offers Brooklyn salary flexibility for future trades.
