Team USA Stands Up for Brittney Griner!

In one of the most viral sports stories of our times, even though most of you don't consider the WNBA a sport, you TOXIC MALES with your BIGOTRY, is that superstar WNBA player Brittney Griner smuggled drugs into the USSR and got caught, in what I like to call her on Midnight Express.

I am a non-sympathizer with drug smugglers, if you do the crime you gotta do the time, or whatever, so I don't really understand all the outrage, whether I think cannabis is a supplement and not an actual narcotic OR not. I am not the law of the land of Russia.

Well, in today's Griner news, Team USA has come together with an escape plan that the writers of Shawshank Redemption should have gone with, yes, I'm talking to you Stephen, because they have decided to get hard on the Griner activism.

No, they aren't trading Russian war criminals for their star, although it's been discussed, they've gone WAY more extreme...by not letting anyone war number 15 until Griner is home.

Nice gesture guys or should I say gals.

No one on Team USA wears No. 15 other than two-time Olympic Gold Medalist Brittney Griner.

USA Basketball will honor BG as they take the court in Sydney at the World Cup. No. 15 will stay reserved until BG is back home. #WeAreBG pic.twitter.com/S7ud0jX3Mi
