Forced to withdraw from the World Cup a few hours before its start, Marine Johannès is going through difficult times. However, she can always console herself by looking at Kevin Durant’s Instagram story… in which she appears!
At present, she should have garnered the maximum rest at the dawn of the second match of the Blues at the World Cup. However, Marine Johannès is no longer part of Jean-Aimé Toupane’s group for the competition. Offensive leader of the French team, the rear of the Liberty experienced a terrible disappointment a few hours before the entry into the running of his selection. The kind of hard blow that leaves traces.
Kevin Durant validates a comparison with Marine Johannès
Determined to give the best for his country, Johannès obviously had difficulty cashing in on his last-minute package, just like the rest of the tricolor locker room. Nevertheless, this injury will allow her to enjoy a well-deserved vacation after her big season with New York. A good way to recharge the batteries, and be able to sign highlights again next year… à la Kevin Durant:
Highlight machine during his recent visit to the Big Apple, Marine notably shocked observers on more than one occasion with 3-point shots… on one leg. In this way, it was also quickly compared to KD, also the author of this unique shot in the NBA. A rapprochement that the Nets winger himself approved by relaying the video above on his Instagram story!
To be endorsed and highlighted in this way by Kevin Durant, it is not given to any WNBA player, and even to any player at all. The French therefore has something to feel privileged about, which could possibly make her smile again in this delicate period for her!
A figure of the “one-leg shot” in the WNBA, Marine Johannès is emulated there, just like Kevin Durant in the NBA. Well worth a spotlight from the Slim Reaper, for a New York connection no one expected!
