No. 30 — Milwaukee Bucks: Cameron Johnson, SF

School: UNC | Class: Senior | Height: 6’8” | Weight: 210 | Age: 22

The Bucks locked up Eric Bledsoe for four years but still have quite a few guys they need to pay. Nikola Mirotic, Malcolm Brogdon and Khris Middleton all need new deals. Whether or not Milwaukee will bring all of them back is yet to be seen.

Adding an elite movement shooter like UNC senior Cam Johnson would help alleviate some of the Bucks’ cap sheet. Standing at 6’8″ and shooting 48.1% from three, Johnson’s combination of size and shooting is something NBA teams will covet.

He’s also a very smart player, showing a good feel for the game and executing good passes often.

Collison has earned more credit than he receives. dark. Next

I have questions about who he will guard given his slight frame but Johnson’s pure shooting and overall offensive ability should at least have him being a solid role player in the NBA. — Ben Pfeifer
