% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


Indiana Fever head coach Stephanie White

The Indiana Fever selected Raven Johnson at No. 10 in the 2026 WNBA draft. Her addition gives head coach Stephanie White more depth at the guard rotation and another weapon who can contribute on both ends of the floor.

In her preseason debut on Saturday against the New York Liberty, Johnson impressed by recording six points on 3-for-3 shooting, along with three rebounds, eight assists and two blocks.

The former South Carolina Gamecocks star showcased her two-way prowess and proved that she can make a difference at the pro level. In only 18 minutes off the bench, she made her presence felt and helped the Fever secure a 109-91 win.

The 23-year-old also played on Thursday versus the Dallas Wings. She logged 21 minutes and recorded three points, five assists and five steals.

WNBA: Indiana Fever coach Stephanie White reveals plans for Raven Johnson

After the game, White shared her thoughts on Johnson’s preseason performance to reporters. The 2023 WNBA Coach of the Year also revealed her plans for the 5-foot-8 guard.

“I love her energy,” White said. “We’ve got to find minutes for her. And we’ve got to find minutes for her in a good rotation.”

Johnson is expected to receive consistent playing time and will be tasked to provide quality minutes off the bench. She will play behind the likes of Caitlin Clark and Kelsey Mitchell in the backcourt. Learning from two of the best guards in the league would help Johnson transition to the WNBA more smoothly and speed up her development.

She relentlessly defended in college and earned SEC Defender of the Year honors last season. Johnson is coming off a successful career with the Gamecocks, winning the national championship in 2022 and 2024.

It won’t be surprising to see her carve out an important role for Indiana, especially with White already committed to providing her with ample playing time. Johnson can also prove that she is the steal of the 2026 draft class.
