Just 24 hours after her last appearance, Marine Johannès was out again this Wednesday with the Liberty. For once, the Frenchwoman stood out on the New York court with two viral highlights!
After a first passage across the Atlantic that looked like an individual and collective failure in 2019, here she is finally in a perfect environment to shine. Arrived at the beginning of June in New York, Marine Johannès has since met with great success under the colors of Liberty. Shock teammate of star Sabrina Ionescu, the tricolor rear stood out again this Wednesday in her favorite exercise.
Marine Johannès shocks with two brilliant offerings
The day after his great performance delivered against the Los Angeles Sparks, Johannès found the same opponent with her teammates at the Barclays Center. A meeting that ended in a victory much more hung than the previous one (64-61), during which the Frenchwoman knew how to pull out of the game. This, in large part thanks to her phenomenal passing game, well illustrated by the sequence below. below:

Marine has never worn her nickname “Magic” Johannès so well. Rather badly embarked on her drive, the ASVEL player used her eyes in the back to serve her pivot Han Xu on a plate. On her way, she cracked another equally spectacular assist a few minutes later, this time for Crystal Dangerfield. The latter even showed herself in shock at the end of the game:
I asked Crystal Dangerfield about that Marine Johannès volleyball-style tip pass. “I wasn’t even expecting it, to be honest. She’s always two steps ahead. I try to read her eyes, even though she always does the no-look.” “She’s never looking!” Stef Dolson shouted. @Winsidr pic.twitter.com/ffhYmj7E51

I asked Crystal Dangerfield about the volley pass from Marine Johannès: “I didn’t even expect to receive the ball, to be honest. She is always two steps ahead of the others. I try to read what she’s going to do in her eyes, but she always makes blind passes. “She never looks!” shouted Stef Dolson.
Marine Johnannès does not need to score to splash the floor with her talent, and has once again shown it well in recent hours. Something to delight her Liberty partners, who nevertheless admit that they sometimes have trouble following her!
