NBA Twitter reacts to Cam Johnson’s game-winner vs. Knicks and altercation with Julius Randle
Cam Johnson stepped up Friday night vs. the New York Knicks with Devin Booker sidelined due to the health-and-safety protocols. In the third quarter, the 26-year old got into an altercation with Julius Randle, which resulted in an ejection for the Knicks star.
Johnson responded with a career-high 38 points, nine three-pointers, and the game-winning three-pointer at the buzzer to beat New York 114-115.
Here’s how NBA fans and Knicks fans reacted to Johnson’s performance on Twitter.

Jae Crowder said he told Cam Johnson "I'm so proud of you" 8-10 times for the way that he responded to that adversity after getting into it with Randle. Said he saw that fire in his eyes afterward
