New details on the deal that brought Brittney Griner home - ABC News
Russia released the WNBA star from a Russian penal colony in exchange for arms dealer Viktor Bout.
abcnews.go.comHere’s the latest I can verify up to now: Brittney Griner’s most recent high-profile deal was her return to the Phoenix Mercury on a one-year contract, which was reported in February 2023 after she was released from Russia. Since then, there hasn’t been a widely reported new contract or major deal for Griner through 2024–2025, though she has remained a focal point of WNBA coverage and potential negotiations around player salaries and the league’s collective bargaining agreement. For the very latest, I can look up current outlets if you’d like me to search again.[3][5][6]
