Shot Defense
These factors are regularized RAPM-style estimates of how the player moves her team's performance relative to league baseline when she's on the floor. ORAPM/DRAPM summarize overall offensive and defensive impact per 100 possessions; the sub-rows approximate impact on effective shooting, turnover margin, rebounding, and free-throw pressure, then unpack where shots come from (profile/deterrence) and how they are finished or contested (making/defense). The offensive components incorporate priors to stabilize estimates, while the defensive components are currently fit without priors.
Raven Johnson is an efficient and methodical point guard who has anchored multiple runs to the national championship as a low turnover, high IQ decision maker.
While Raven doesn't have that high volume takeover scorer type of skillset - as evidenced by the fact that she never averaged double digit points in her 5 year college career - her value lies in her elite defensive presence and her ability to organise a professional level offense.
Johnson's most translatable skill is her on ball defense. Standing at 5'8", she possesses an amazing 6'2" wingspan which she uses to consistently set the tone at the point of attack alongside her quick reflexes and lateral movement.
This past season, Johnson upped her offensive efficiency greatly, as she developed a much stronger midrange game and 3 point jumpshot, though she remains a pass first guard who prioritises system flow over individual scoring.

Standing at 6'0", Gabriela Jaquez is a high-motor, physical wing whose value lies in her pro ready versatility and winning player intangibles, as evidenced by being the leading scorer in this year's national title game.
Jaquez possesses excellent body control which she pairs with her shifty handle to make her way to the rim and finish from a myriad of angles. Her in-between game is nicely developed as well as she frequently puts defenders in jail on her hip to access her floater and uses her physicality to bump defenders before rising up over them.
Jaquez's offensive ceiling is largely dependent on whether she can improve as a primary self creator at the next level. A very high percentage of her jumpers are currently assisted, and she lacks a consistent pull up shot to punish WNBA defenders who might duck under screens. However, as a strong athlete who can rebound, defend multiple spots and knock down open threes, she should be a contributing member to any organisation.

After only starting to play basketball in 2020, Madina Okot has become one of the highest risers on WNBA draft boards. A 6'6" center from Kenya, Okot is a double-double machine who dominates the glass on both ends.
Okot's rim protection is a standout feature, where her background as a volleyball player is evident in her explosive verticality and timing when patrolling the paint. There are still quite a few raw elements to her game such as her post footwork and ability to pass out of double teams, but this should be expected for someone with only six years of organized basketball experience, and it's clear Okot is improving game by game.
After not attempting a single 3 pointer her first college season, Okot has shown some flashes of potentially being a stretch big in the future, connecting on 44.7% from deep but on just 0.7 attempts a game.
