Donaven Johnson is Penn State–New Kensington’s primary table-setter
In the 2025–26 season, Donaven Johnson has emerged as Penn State–New Kensington’s assist leader at 6.1 per game, with added value on the glass and as a defensive factor through shot-blocking from the guard spot.[2] His profile suggests a pass-first, high-impact backcourt player rather than a pure scorer, which makes him a fit for teams that value pace, unselfishness, and activity. Earlier stat pages show a modest scoring role, so his appeal is less about volume and more about organizing offense and contributing in multiple low-glamour ways.[1][6]
