In the Official Liberal Lacking In Basic Education Reason And Logic Shirt But I will love this 17 months since she returned to the United States, Brittney Griner has never been bigger, but not by choice. The six-foot-nine center’s career highlights — from breaking out in college basketball at Baylor University and winning the 2014 WNBA championship for the Phoenix Mercury to bringing home gold medals at the 2016 and 2020 Olympics for Team USA — have almost been overshadowed by the events that unfolded in her life in 2022.
It’s all in her second memoir, Coming Home, which tells the Official Liberal Lacking In Basic Education Reason And Logic Shirt But I will love this story of how the Houston-born WNBA champion and Olympic gold medalist was detained by Russian authorities and imprisoned for 293 days. Before her arrest, she had been accustomed to playing for international teams overseas, hooping for the Zhejiang Golden Bulls and Beijing Great Wall in China and the UMMC Ekaterinburg in Russia. As Griner explains it, WNBA players will often play overseas because they are not paid enough Stateside. “We earn about 250 times less than NBA players and have a hard cap on our salaries. In the WNBA that year I made around $220,000. Overseas, I earned a million plus. That pay gap is why I was in Russia in the first place,” she writes. In February 2022, when rushing to pack for a trip back to Russia to play in her eighth season there, she forgot she’d left a vape cartridge containing small amounts of cannabis oil in her bag. Griner chronicles the moments leading up to her arrest and the brutal aftermath as her wife, Cherelle Griner — then a third-year law student — rallied the United States government and the biggest names in sports to bring the athlete home. “I needed to do it sooner than later. At least get it out while it was fresh,” Griner says now of her decision to write the memoir, which will be published on May 7. “We knew that we needed to start on it last season. But I don’t think there was ever a moment where I was like, All right, this is the time. I was just so anxious.”

Rapinoe and Griner have been in each other’s orbits, bumping into one another at various games and events over the years, from the Olympic bubble in Tokyo to the occasional WNBA game — thanks in part to Rapinoe’s partner, former WNBA player Sue Bird. “Revolutionary people show up in all types of different ways and she certainly is one,” Rapinoe says of Griner. “You’d think she’s tough, but she’s just a big teddy bear.”
Really, she’s both. The gay, super-tall Black girl from Texas whom, as she writes, people often perceived as a Black man, and who has survived painful levels of scrutiny for holding those identities, and the Official Liberal Lacking In Basic Education Reason And Logic Shirt But I will love this buoyant, funny, endearingly scared-shitless parent-to-be who just got back from a camping trip and bought Rollerblades. As she told Rapinoe during their conversation last week, Griner is focused on living as joyful a life as she can now that she’s home. About the upcoming birth of her first kid — baby Bash — she told Rapinoe, “Screw the championships and all the trophies and all that; that’s going to be the highest peak of my life right there.”
