The Nets acquired Johnson, Mikal Bridges, Jae Crowder, unprotected first-round draft picks in 2023, 2025, 2027 and 2029 and a 2028 first-round pick swap from the Suns on Thursday in exchange for Kevin Durant (knee) and T.J. Warren, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN.com reports.

Considering the Nets also acquired Spencer Dinwiddie and Dorian Finney-Smith a few days ago, it's unclear where the trio of Suns players will fall in the Nets' depth chart. Bridges is the most likely to see a consistent 30-plus-minute role -- if he isn't moved elsewhere ahead of Thursday's deadline -- but Johnson may have to battle with Ben Simmons, Finney-Smith, Royce O'Neale and Joe Harris for playing time at either forward spot. Johnson had shown promise in his first season as a full-time starter in Phoenix, averaging 13.9 points and 3.8 rebounds while shooting 45.5 percent from deep in 25.2 minutes per game.
