Cam Johnson is irreplaceable but the Suns have the talent to expand some roles and the assets to look into some additions elsewhere so they remain a top contender while he recovers: arizonasports.com/story/3364406/…9:34 PM

#Blazers coach Chauncey Billups said he’s sticking with same starting lineup as Damian Lillard (calf) and Anfernee Simons (foot) are out again tonight.

Whipped up some Jae Crowder trade ideas here (bit.ly/3DYU5FU) and here (bit.ly/3TYDmb7) over the last few months, for those curious. No doubt the Suns could use some timely help depending on how long Cam Johnson will be sidelined for – 8:33 PM

“It doesn’t matter.”
Asked about the L2M report that confirmed a number of calls went against the Suns on the final two plays, Monty Williams said he saw the travel watching the film but didn’t say anything because he doesn’t want to be fined for it. Said the Blazers beat them – 8:24 PM

Suns say they don’t have an official update on Cam Johnson yet, who is undergoing further evaluation – 8:11 PM
Shams Charania @ShamsCharania
The Phoenix Suns fear forward Cam Johnson has suffered a torn meniscus in his right knee, sources tell me and @Sam Amick. Testing so far indicates the meniscus injury, and Johnson is receiving further evaluations and imaging. – 7:56 PM
