"Raven Johnson is the best non-Hannah Hidalgo guard defender in college basketball, with consistent decision-making and plus-plus rebounding at 5’8. The hope was that she’d continue to take steps as a shooter and turn her elite burst and lower-body strength into becoming a confident driver — but neither has happened through two months. Since starting the season 0-13 from beyond the arc, Johnson has improved her shooting (12-for-27 from three since then) but remains largely unguarded on the perimeter, limiting her playmaking impact due to minimal advantage creation. We still believe she could carve out a role in the W as a defense-first floor general; there just needs to be a baseline level of scoring consistency for defenses to respect her." -The Next
