Brooklyn traded away Mikal Bridges in the summer and Dennis Schroder earlier this week.
But they weren’t the only Nets drawing interest around the league.
And Cam Johnson gave another reminder why he’s garnered the most interest.
While league sources say nothing appears imminent and the Nets aren’t so much making calls as taking them, Johnson is the player NBA personnel feel would fetch the highest return.
In the meantime, he’s talked with GM Sean Marks and coach Jordi Fernandez and is focusing on the task at hand.
“I think that’s a given,” Johnson told The Post. “We’ve communicated that: Be where your feet are. I think what the conversations have been is, ‘Hey, we’ll come to you with anything that we need to come to you with. And if you have any questions, our doors are open to come talk to us.’ And that’s where it is.
“I think the understanding is, don’t get caught up in things that we can’t control or things that are off the court when we have so much to worry about on the court.”
The Nets have plenty of worries, but Johnson isn’t one.
He’s averaging 19.2 points on 48.9/43.1/87.4 shooting splits, all career highs.
That 3-point percentage is fifth among players who have attempted at least 150.
Johnson has expanded his game partly due to having a healthy offseason to broaden his repertoire and partly due to being used differently under Fernandez.
“One, I do feel that I improve on a season-to-season basis, and I work to do that. I’m not just trying to maintain, be the same player I’ve always been,” Johnson told The Post. “The cool thing is when you’re in different situations, you get to go back and watch the film, get to learn from different situations and understand where shots come from, where passes come from, how defenses react. It just goes into your mental playbook, and you’re able to work on skill outside of games, in summers and practices, post-practice, pre-practice, during practice, and do so with the knowledge of what you’ve seen on the court before.
“Then obviously just being in a situation where it’s more expected. I’ve been known to be a role player in my years, being able to guard different positions and be a wing shooter. … I just want to be a part of winning basketball and contribute in the best way I can. Naturally, roles evolve and grow and change, so I just try to embrace that and take the knowledge I’ve learned and try to just be a better player.”
Johnson has never been a better player than he was in Thursday’s win at Toronto. He had 33 points — 15 in the fourth quarter — 10 boards and a career-high six assists.
“He creates a lot of attention because he moves, and teams have to guard him,” Fernandez said. “You get other guys open just because of his ability to get himself open and move around and screen and run off screens.”
Johnson, averaging 24.2 points over his past six games, has improved this year running off screens but is more efficient off handoffs and cuts as well.
“I feel the transition. I get the ball in my hands a little more, and I’m able to playmake a little more in different actions,” Johnson said. “A lot of it is due to the nature of the actions we run and how I factor into that. Trying to use ball pressure and gravity to my advantage and freeing up everybody else. … So it’s different, but it doesn’t feel odd, awkward or anything like that. I love to hoop. I love going out there and playing, and I just want to win, at the end of the day. So I’ll do whatever it takes.
“Sometimes in my career, that’s been sitting in the corner a little bit more and looking for opportunities and playing off some really good players. And sometimes, it’s been a little more active with the ball. For me, it’s just continuing to get better every day, no matter what my role is on the court, and continue to find ways to contribute to winning basketball.”
