Early career

[edit]

Marine Johannès started basketball when she was 8 at the club of Pont-l'Évêque, the same one as Nicolas Batum. She was noticed by Samuel Vallée, who made her join at 12 the basketball club USO Mondeville.[3] With that team, she won the U17 French League two times, in 2011 and 2012, and the U17 French Cup in 2012. Her team also won the Youth French League in 2013.[4]

Pro

[edit]

It's in Mondeville, a team evolving in LFB, the first division in France, that she had her first professional experience during the 2011-12 season at 17 years old. She had her breakthrough year during the 2015-16 season, averaging 14.2 points and 4.4 assists in 34 minutes.[5] After that season, she joined Bourges, having her first experience in EuroLeague. She had good individual and team achievements with Bourges, winning the French Cup [fr] in 2017,[6] 2018[7] and 2019[8] and the French League in 2018.[9] She was two times in the All-LFB First Team, during the 2017-18[10] and 2018-19[11] seasons. On a European level, Bourges lost in the quarter-finals of EuroLeague each of her three years with the team. During her 2018–19 season, she averaged 15.1 points and 4.7 assists in Euroleague. That season, she was named Best Guard and Most Entertaining Player of the EuroLeague regular season.[12]

In 2019, she signed a 3 years contract with the winner of the French League Lyon ASVEL, a club owned by Tony Parker. Her first season was interrupted by COVID while her team was first in the standings. She was also named in the All-Euroleague 2nd team this shorten season.[13] During the 2020-21 season, she had a career high 38 points against USK Praha[14] and was in the All-Euroleague 2nd team again.[15] In the French League, she was named in the First Team for the third time of her career[16] but her team lost in the semi-finals, resulting in them playing the EuroCup and not the EuroLeague the next season, the first time in that competition for Johannès in her career. The 2021-22 season wasn't a big team success for Lyon ASVEL, losing in the quarterfinals of EuroCup against Çukurova Basketbol,[17] ending 3rd of the LFB regular season and losing in the finals against Johannès' previous team Bourges,[18] making them play in Eurocup again the next season. Neither was it a good individual season for Johannès who was for the first time not nominated in the All-LFB First Team since the creation of the award and having her stats going slightly down, including her shooting percentage in LFB going from 49.2% the previous season to 41.8%.[5]

She was signed in 2019 by the New York Liberty.[19] She averaged 7.2 points in 19 minutes that season.[5] She had a few high scoring games, including back-to-back career high with a 21 points game against Connecticut followed by a 22 one against Washington. In February 2020, it was announced that she signed a multi-year deal with the Liberty.[20] However, because of the COVID pandemic, she opted not to play during the 2020 season[21] and the Liberty suspended her contract for the year.[22] She didn't play the 2021 season either because of overseas commitment, having both the EuroBasket and the Olympic Games to play that summer. On 8 June the Liberty announced that she would join the team for the 2022 season.[23] She improved her career high in points by scoring 23 points in a loss against the Seattle Storm on 20 June 2022.[24]
