“I’d love to come back to Israel”, said Johnson to ‘Safsal’ and added a stare towards her agent. But so far there hasn’t been a serious offer from an Israeli team for who’s arguably the greatest player to pass through our league.

Johnson is considered a big star in Israel, but in the WNBA, not really. She has missed just six games in nine seasons and is NY’s leading scorer of all time, she’s ranked in the top 10 of every category in the Liberty’s record book, but a quick glance around MSG shows there aren’t too many people wearing #55 jerseys. But with 1:49 to go in the Phoenix game, as Johnson drove the lane for a typical lefty layup, 12,428 people got up and cheered as the announcer informed them of the milestone. “It felt great – it brought a tear to my eye”, VJ said. “I truly appreciate it. I love playing here, and I hope I finish my career here”.

of COURSE she does! while the 4 months off to rehab did wonders for her body (and her game this season, i think) it was no help to her bank account. She gets good $$ in israel.
