Written by worldOneFm on March 31, 2024
Eight-time All-Star center Brittney Griner has re-signed with the Phoenix Mercury.
The WNBA did not disclose terms of the contract late Friday. However, multiple media outlets reported the free agent was given a one-year deal that the Mercury officially will announce next week.
Griner, 33, returned last season after missing the 2022 campaign while being detained in a Russian jail on a drug-related charge. She averaged 17.5 points, 6.3 rebounds, 2.2 assists and 1.6 blocks in 31 games (all starts) in 2023.
