During her college years, the 23-year-old missed her true freshman season due to a serious left knee injury and had other minor injuries throughout her run.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Johnson has played 13 games so far for the Fever, averaging only 4.3 points, 1.8 rebounds, and 1.3 assists on 43.8 percent shooting from the field, as head coach Stephanie White insists on easing her transition to the pros. <\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>MORE:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.thebiglead.com\/cailin-clark-aliyah-boston-make-wnba-history-during-indiana-fever-game\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Caitlin Clark, Aliyah Boston make WNBA history during Indiana Fever game<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img data-od-added-loading=\"\" data-od-removed-fetchpriority=\"high\" data-od-replaced- data-od-xpath=\"\/HTML\/BODY\/DIV[@class='elementor elementor-68004 elementor-location-single post-187540 post type-post status-publish format-standard has-post-thumbnail hentry category-wnba tag-indiana-fever tag-raven-johnson tag-wnba mv-content-wrapper']\/*[3][self::DIV]\/*[1][self::DIV]\/*[2][self::DIV]\/*[2][self::DIV]\/*[1][self::DIV]\/*[6][self::FIGURE]\/*[1][self::PICTURE]\/*[2][self::IMG]\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\"  src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/USATSI_29112579-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"May 28, 2026; San Francisco, California, USA; Indiana Fever guard Raven Johnson (3) dribbles upcourt against the Golden State Valkyries in the second quarter at Chase Center.

Mandatory Credit: David Gonzales-Imagn Images<\/p>\n<p>Caitlin Clark is also in the Indiana Fever\u2019s injury report vs. Toronto Tempo<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Caitlin Clark will likely play against the Toronto Tempo on Tuesday, as the Indiana Fever star is listed as probable in the injury report. She had been playing through a back injury for a while now, and head coach Stephanie White said Clark would likely have the probable designation in the foreseeable future after the WNBA warned the team for improper reporting practices last May.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Fever are fresh from an 85-75 win over the Connecticut Sun last Saturday, stretching their winning streak to three games and improving to an 8-5 record. Clark, who <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thebiglead.com\/caitlin-clark-will-debut-her-first-signature-shoe-in-2026\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">will have her own signature shoe with Nike<\/a>, led the team in scoring with a game-high 25 points, three rebounds, five assists, and five three-pointers on 10-for-17 shooting from the field in 36 minutes.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Before this, the Fever notched an 114-106 overtime win over the Chicago Sky last Thursday, as Caitlin Clark and Aaliyah Boston became the first teammates in WNBA history to both register at least 30 points.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Indiana Fever could be without one of their young players, as rookie guard Raven Johnson is listed&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":870800,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_share_on_mastodon":"0"},"categories":[49],"tags":[234,216173,62,67,132,68,232],"class_list":["post-870799","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-wnba","tag-indiana-fever","tag-raven-johnson","tag-sports","tag-united-states","tag-unitedstates","tag-us","tag-wnba"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@us\/116758976151385132","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/870799","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=870799"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/870799\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/870800"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=870799"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=870799"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=870799"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
