Nuggets have to start leaning on Cameron Johnson as a third scoring option
If it weren't for the hustle and fire of Cameron Johnson, the Denver Nuggets could have slipped and fallen to the Memphis Grizzlies. But Johnson showed out, and he's going to have to be the Nuggets' primary third option in the offense moving forward.
The Nuggets held on to win 123-118 after Johnson made a key chase-down of a loose ball to retain possession, gathered himself, and then received a perfect pass from Aaron Gordon for a layup to put the Nuggets back up by four with 2 minutes to go. It was that same grit that was with Johnson all night as he had his best game of the season.
