He's a problem, that's it, period. He can pass, rebound, score -- you don't know what you're gonna get any given day, like what mode he's in. It's an uncanny ability. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Alarme c/ Câmera Mais moderna do Mercado por até 40% Off Alarme Verisure Saiba Mais Undo He has spatial awareness, just how he feels a game, how he understands the game, like he does it in a way different than anybody else in the league." He continued: "From a peer numbers perspective, you're not really touching his output over the past couple of years, and it's not accidental, like he's just that good," Johnson said. "So to be able to play off that, to be able to make those reads, like me and Tim [Hardaway Jr.] both will really enjoy playing off these high level players where we're able to cut, find open spots, get up and down the court, make the right play, and it can just be simple. .' Cameron Johnson in action (Image via Instagram / @camjohnson23) He then concluded: 'Knowing that everybody whose on the court, they're going to make the right play, they're going to make the right read.

Reports: Tim Hardaway Jr. reaches deal with Nuggets

The Denver Nuggets reached an agreement on a one-year deal with Tim Hardaway Jr. on Tuesday, according to multiple media reports. Per The Athletic, the deal is for the veteran minimum. Hardaway, 33, was acquired last summer by the Detroit Pistons along with three draft picks from the Dallas Mavericks in exchange for Quentin Grimes. The shooting guard went on to become a key contributor in Detroit's resurgence in 2024-25 that resulted in the No. 6 seed in the Eastern Conference playoffs, where the Pistons lost to the New York Knicks in the first round. Starting and appearing in 77 regular-season games for the Pistons, Hardaway averaged 11.0 points, 2.4 rebounds and 1.6 assists while shooting 36.8 percent from 3-point range. Denver has enjoyed an impressive haul in the early going of free agency, adding Jonas Valanciunas and Cameron Johnson via trade and inking returnee Bruce Brown Jr. in the period's first few days. --Field Level Media Field Level Media 2023 - All Rights Reserved

Cade Cunningham guarantees Pistons will force Game 7: ‘We'll be back'

Cade Cunningham's message was simple. 'We'll be back,' he said after the Knicks' 106-103 Game 5 loss to the Pistons Tuesday night at Madison Square Garden. Tuesday's win kept the Pistons — who are now down 3-2 — alive for the series. And their stars are bullish on their chances to win Game 6 and return to New York for a Game 7. 'Very confident,' Tim Hardaway Jr. said. Ausar Thompson said the same thing.

Jason Szenes / New York Post If the Pistons can win Game 6 on Thursday and return to New York, they should like their chances in a Game 7. They have owned Madison Square Garden throughout the year with a 4-1 record at the arena between the regular season and playoffs.

'Knowing that it's gonna be a hostile environment, knowing that it's gonna be a tough win, and everybody being locked in,' Cunningham said of Madison Square Garden. 'When our backs are against the wall, we're better. We play better, we're more together. I think tonight was an example of that, and now we gotta apply that to the crib.

'It's everything you dream of. Playing with a full arena, a bunch of people booing you, that's everything you dream of.' In the regular season, the Pistons had the same exact 22-19 record at home and on the road. 'Our guys, as crazy as it sounds, they feed off of it,' Pistons coach J.B. Bickerstaff said of playing on the road. 'They feed off the energy of the opponent's crowd, talking s–t, making noise. They embrace the chaos and they're comfortable there. Not everybody is that way. Some people need the support of their home crowd and all sorts of things. But our guys embrace the chaos and they're extremely comfortable, [that's where] they play their best.'
