Kiersten Johnson brings Baylor veteran toughness, defense-first impact, and efficient scoring punch
Kiersten Johnson is a senior forward who gives Baylor a mature, low-drama two-way presence: she can score efficiently, rebound, and protect the rim, while bringing the poise of a player who has already proven herself at Oklahoma before finding a bigger role in Waco. In the 2025-26 season, ESPN listed her at 4.9 points and 4.3 rebounds per game on 47.7% shooting, and Baylor coverage says she has settled into a renewed, comfortable fit that unlocked her best self. She looks like a strong fit for teams wanting dependable physicality, defensive versatility, and steady leadership over flash.[2][3][4]
