Brittney Griner

Brittney Griner's critically acclaimed memoir “Coming Home,” which she wrote after her release from a Russian prison in 2022, “could be shelved under horror,” according to The Guardian. The six-time WNBA All-Star and center for the Phoenix Mercury won her third Olympic gold medal during the 2024 Summer Games. ESPN ranked her 15 out of the top 25 players for the WNBA playoffs, and in January she’s set to join the new off-season 3-on-3 Unrivaled Basketball League. In July, she and her wife welcomed their baby boy to the world. Griner told the Hollywood Reporter “that her whole phone has turned into him.”
