WNBA star Brittney Griner’s evolution | E:60

WNBA star Brittney Griner describes how she was bullied as a child and how basketball helped her cope with depression and open up to her mother about her sexuality. Griner’s talents on the basketball court took her to Baylor University, where she led the team to the 2012 national championship, and she was selected with the No. 1 pick in the 2013 WNBA draft by the Phoenix Mercury. Griner also discusses her 2015 domestic violence arrest on suspicion of assault and disorderly conduct after an argument with fellow WNBA player Glory Johnson, her then-fiancée. Griner also details how she matured and grew as a person while playing for UMMC Ekaterinburg in the Russian Premier League.

That's crazy that she's gotta pay child suport and can't get anyone pregnant.

[Slay]

Wasn’t this the girl that thought she can beat DeMarcus Cousins in a 1v1?

[cxtney]

Bro when she vid started I thought the voice was her dad

[MrGSticks]

Her voice makes Barry white sound like a soprano.

[acevoyage]

This girl went to Russia
OH! she gets paid 10x as much

[cosmosdomain]

Omg her voice is deep... I have never in my life heard a woman's voice that deep

[zachgraham]

I can't believe she's still going to protest the anthem

[Disillusioned]

Deep voice - flat chest - adams apple - 6'9 tall - all hallmark signs of being a women.

When she did this interview I bet she could’ve never imagined exactly how much Russia would ultimately changed her life .

[theanonymousblackkid]

@ 0:20 I thought her dad was talking about her as a child.... Damn 😭😂😅

[toxicginger]

7:05 "Being here in Russia has definitely changed my life." ~~ Oh... sweet younger Brittney, you had no idea what the future would bring.

[rissa_x]

it’s crazy that WNBA players get paid more outside of the US. It’s weird that female basketball players are valued more outside of America. I always found it hard to understand.

[athorpe]

Omg her voice is totally man.Deep as the deep blue sea.

[mizeryluvkompany]

I seen her just last week at a mall in arizona. She was in a wheel chair. And nobody noticed her except me

[kings]

How come NBA players can't date cheerleaders but WNBA players can date each other? Lol

[sherecebennett]

She's been through and is still going through times, this is most likely God trying to call out to her. I moved overseas to get a better pay and I was lonely at first. But I started reading my Bible and building a relationship with Jesus Christ. Now I know my true purpose. And God brought the right people and influences in my life. I pray that for Brittney.

[elleryhall]

I never would've thought her voice would sound like that.

[dlrunner]

What a great opportunity for her to become fluent in Russian. And she doesn't even have to pay a tutor. Some people have all the luck.

“Play video games until like 9 at night”. I play till like 2am can I get an espn crew over here?

[dandaman]

There is some kind of disturbing hormonal imbalance going on with this person.
