Marine Johannès blazed on the floor and LeBron James ignited in the stands. Sunday evening, for Game 1 of the WNBA finals, the Frenchwoman, 28, got off to a great start by scoring 14 points thanks to insane baskets.
In the play-offs, however, Johannès only played an average of 9 minutes and scored only 5 points in total. But for the occasion, the coach launched it and the Frenchwoman went wild, quickly scoring four three-point shots. And what shots, all completely unbalanced which surprised the opposing defense.
Present on the bench, LeBron visibly appreciated the Frenchie’s production, to the point that he retweeted a video of his baskets, attaching a laudatory comment on one of them made on one leg and a few flamboyant emojis .
After describing Victor Wembanyama as an alien last year, the US basketball legend definitely does not hold back from saying good things about the French when they stand out.
Unfortunately, the improved Johannès could not completely benefit Liberty, who collapsed in the second half and lost 99-82, without the slightest point from the Frenchwoman. However, No. 23 certainly stood out enough for her to be called upon again during these finals afterwards.
At the same time, Normandy sent a message to the attention of the French Federation, which deprived her of the Euro last June.
But it may be that LeBron’s compliment to him trumps everything else.
