What happened to Cam Johnson? Live injury updates for Nuggets vs. Timberwolves on Sunday 3/1/26

Denver Nuggets NBA

With 7:50 left in the fourth quarter of Sunday’s game against the Minnesota Timberwolves, Cam Johnson was replaced by Nikola Jokic. Johnson suffered an ankle injury and is now doubtful to return. There’s been no mention of when or how the injury occurred.

Prior to exiting, Johnson contributed four rebounds and three assists while shooting 0-of-6 from the field in 23 minutes of action.

If Johnson is out for an extended period of time, Tim Hardaway Jr. and Bruce Brown would be the likely beneficiaries.

Denver plays on Monday in Utah then is off until a back-to-back on Thursday and Friday at home.

Stan joined DraftKings in December of 2020. It was a glorious time, except for that whole COVID thing, when we got Madden streams and boisterous bat flips from the KBO. I was brought on board to bring some West Coast flavor. I especially love hoops, and most of my content is in that arena. When I walk along the beach, strumming my guitar, the beat that I hear is not one of crashing waves. No, it is the beat of the ball bouncing off the hardwood with highs provided by the squeaks of the sneakers. Ball is life.
