The Nets are interested in trading the No. 19 draw upwards, and the Rockets have the opportunity to take the opportunity to win the top outside pitcher?

Brooklyn NetsDaily updated its social media account and talked about the possible operations the team may take before the next NBA draft begins. According to NetsDaily, the Nets intend to send Cameron Johnson away for upward trades.

NetsDaily wrote: I heard that the Nets may intend to trade up with the 19th first round in their hands and get a lottery draw in the lottery. They will consider packing Johnson and the No. 19 draw and quoting the Toronto Raptors or Houston Rockets in exchange for their first round 9 draw or the No. 10 draw in the first round, and at the same time take over a relatively low-cost contract from the opponent. If the deal can be successfully reached, the Nets will have two top 10 picks in this year's NBA Draft (the Nets currently have the No. 8 pick in the first round). But all this will be smooth, but neither the Raptors nor the Rockets need to retain the draft picks in hand for a potential super deal on Giannis Antetokounmpo.

In the NBA regular season this season, Johnson made a total of 57 appearances in 82 games, averaging 31.6 minutes per game, averaging 18.8 points, 4.3 rebounds, 2.4 assists, 0.9 steals and 0.4 blocks, and 1.7 turnovers and 1.8 fouls, shooting percentage of 47.5%, three-point shooting percentage of 39%, and free throw shooting percentage of 89.3%. Johnson's performance this season is pretty good. He has maintained a relatively stable offensive efficiency. His three-point shooting percentage is also quite good. He is still a reliable pitcher and scorer. However, Johnson's contribution to the defensive end is still relatively limited, and he cannot assume too much responsibility on the defensive end, and he does not have the ability to help the team perform better. Johnson's contract with the Nets has two years left to expire, and his salary in the next two seasons is $20.54 million and $22.5 million respectively. Judging from Johnson's ability, this contract is obviously a relatively valuable contract. It is not easy to sign a top pitcher in the league at this price, not to mention that he has proved his strength in the playoffs. For the Rockets, considering that they really need such excellent pitchers, and it seems that the Nets' asking price is relatively reasonable, they can indeed consider the possibility of getting Johnson. With the arrival of Johnson, the Rockets' outside firepower will be greatly improved, and the team's playing style will be more abundant. I don't know if this deal will be completed between the Nets and the Rockets next.
