Marine Johannès’ festival during Game 1 of the WNBA finals did not go unnoticed. LeBron James himself was charmed by the performance of the New York Liberty player, author of 14 points on 5/6 shots, including 4/5 three-pointers, in 11 minutes off the bench.
“It’s not an arm, it’s a cannon! enthused the NBA star on X, ex-Twitter. His one-legged shot got me out of my seat.” The French international from Asvel, however, no longer scored after the break and Las Vegas finally won 99-82 in front of their audience at the Michelob ULTRA Arena.
