LeBron James Says The US Isn't Doing Enough To Bring Brittney Griner Home

LeBron James says Brittney Griner's been in captivity for way too long without the U.S. bringing her home, so if he were the WNBA star, he'd question returning to America. Bron made the comments during a recent taping of "The Shop" when the conversation apparently turned to the incarcerated American hoops star. Now, how can she feel like America has her back? I would be feeling like, 'Do I even want to go back to America?' It's clear LeBron doesn't believe the U.S. is doing nearly enough to bring BG home. Griner was arrested in a Russian airport near Moscow in mid-February after Russian authorities said they found vape cartridges with cannabis oil in her bag. Initially, the American public wasn't made aware Griner was arrested which was strategic on the part of America. With the Russia-Ukraine war waging, the U.S. knew Griner could be used by Russia to gain leverage against the West. But, that strategy only worked for a couple of weeks. Eventually, the news got out, and it's been one of the biggest stories since. Griner's case has consistently been covered in America, and across the world.
