Damn, that girl must be very high on ROY. I had my doubts I have to admit. It was mroe from what peopelw ere telling me on these boards because of her height. I even remember I think VeProfessor talking about wanting Dionnah Jackson. At 5'3 or 5'2 as some people say, she is really good. I can only go from statistics, but a good pick from the Mystics. 12 points and 9 assists with 7 minutes left in the game. I thought she was good but I thought it was because of Augustus in college. I am now wondering if their was a chance that she was making Augustus look really good in college and I just didnt' know it.
I am guessing Augustus will be the top draft choice, and I would even choose her, but Johnson is legit. She made the transition easily it looks like. Am I wrong???

It's early in the season, but IMO she is the frontrunner.

You're not wrong! She looks amazingly comfortable running the show at this level, and her height hasn't been an issue.
Tonight, she was matched up twice against Katie Smith on jump balls, and somehow the Mystics came up with the possession both times. It was hilarious.

| Our Mighty #2 is the real deal. She is so fast, moving in and zipping right past the big gals, getting her shots and passes off like lightning. Runs the team from the point like a veteran, not a rookie. Seems like she can pass the ball across half the court effortlessly. Even gets the jump balls! She is great fun to watch. Her strength and spirit and spunk have made her a fan favorite here in DC and a legitimate contender for ROY.
