Cameron Johnson Cleared to Play Against Bulls After Biceps Recovery

Cameron Johnson (Brooklyn Nets) has been cleared to play Monday against the Chicago Bulls, having recovered from a biceps injury. Johnson aims to rebound after an injury-hampered season where he played only 58 games, averaging 13.4 points, 4.3 rebounds, 2.4 assists, and 2.4 three-pointers. Following the trade of Mikal Bridges, Johnson is projected to start as the power forward for the re-tooling Nets, potentially becoming the team's second offensive option after Cam Thomas. He enters the season healthy and with a four-year, $108 million contract. Johnson previously showed significant upside with the Nets, averaging 16.6 points, 4.8 rebounds, 2.1 assists, and 1.4 steals in 25 games after being acquired in the Kevin Durant trade.
