WNBA Star Brittney Griner was released from a Russian jail earlier this week in a prisoner swap. With this swap finally happening, what does this mean for women to go overseas to just do what they love for better pay? Listen to LaVar Arrington, TJ Houshmandzadeh, and Plaxico Burress as they dive in on this subject:
Plaxico Burress: "Support women and what they do...in the US": "It makes me think about Brittney Griner and why women have to go overseas and play basketball. Guys like myself and the fanbase really don't support them enough...She's arguably one of the greatest female basketball players of all time... We have to get out and support these women and what they love in America... I can't see any female basketball player playing in Russia or anywhere overseas after this situation."
