WNBA star Brittney Griner’s evolution | E:60
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 8 авг 2017
- WNBA star Brittney Griner describes how she was bullied as a child and how basketball helped her cope with depression and open up to her mother about her sexuality. Griner’s talents on the basketball court took her to Baylor University, where she led the team to the 2012 national championship, and she was selected with the No. 1 pick in the 2013 WNBA draft by the Phoenix Mercury. Griner also discusses her 2015 domestic violence arrest on suspicion of assault and disorderly conduct after an argument with fellow WNBA player Glory Johnson, her then-fiancée. Griner also details how she matured and grew as a person while playing for UMMC Ekaterinburg in the Russian Premier League.

Deep voice - flat chest - adams apple - 6'9 tall - all hallmark signs of being a women.
So many idiots here, unbelievable. If she was trans she would of said it. It's not even a scary time to be trans anymore
And a baby through some kind of artificial insemination supposedly
Flat brain
Must be a man
I’m like am I crazy I know what I see😕
Probably intersex. So she is a woman, but has a lot of male traits. It's rare but people are born that way.
That's crazy that she's gotta pay child suport and can't get anyone pregnant.
Please can you help me is she a girl or a boy cos I can't understand
@@camas9351 shes a girl
@@nev2206 not trans? Or intersexed?
Mrs. Garcia No. She just has higher testosterone levels than an average girl. That's why her voice is so deep. And she developed like that.
Youngone1534 Young she get two children
Her voice makes Barry white sound like a soprano.
does not. you've obviously never heard Barry's voice
Makes beta males sound like chipmunks.
THATS MAMA
SHE A GUY
@@alexbird1695 *he
She's almost the same stature of Ekaterina Lisina and Lisina has a much thinner voice 😮😮.
Same goes by Natalia Vieru, once her teammate in UMMC Ekaterinburg.
Does everyone just ignore the giant adam's apple? Or do you really not see it?
Well if its there? The Wnba league hasnt lmao
Women do have them
Wasn’t this the girl that thought she can beat DeMarcus Cousins in a 1v1?
Yes 😂
"Its ok little man" hahahhahahahahahahahahahahhahahaha
@Platinum Hoopsits because she is not a girl. She identifies as Shaq
@Emerson O you are funny
@Emerson O you are beyond delusional. Cousins is the best true center of the nba. Wnba is immeasurably worst than the nba. 2 girls can dunk on the whole league. In the NBA is mandatory to dunk, even for veterans. She is horribly unpolished on basic skills, and could be easily overpowered by ANY player in the NBA, let alone one of the strongest ones.
She may have a deeper voice, but she still carries the beautiful traits of a woman. Pretty hair, skin tone, and a beautiful smile.
Brock Nichols yes...🏀💯
I would climb that tree
You must be fucking blind
Isn't her name brittney not britany
Micheal. B Jordan Hey Michael & It's Britney 💯
I can't believe she's still going to protest the anthem
And???
The only reason why she protested the national anthem was because of the Black Lives Matter movement. She was portray the deaths of Breonna Taylor and other black parole killed by police. If you weren’t so freaking ignorant and did research you would have known that she was protesting for the lives of all black people in America 🙄
@@LyricMaster154 close enough. I dont think it had anything to do with “black lives matter- the movement”. We’ll never know because we don’t personally know Brittany, we can only assume. But its her right as a human being to protest for sure. And that she did. But yea that guy is ignorant. Probably a troll anyways

@@iamhardwell2844 well with all due respect when you go to a different country you have to abide by their laws .she didn't.
Big hands. Adam's Apple. Deep voice. Man.
I'm really devastated with the way this society is becoming morally decayed
do you have a brain? your momma has the same things,and
Did you notice her/his father will not discuss her sexuality why? Because he knows the truth.
women can have all those attributes, woman
Brittany was born a boy
Her voice is deeper than my soul.
cause she's a man.
VogueHaven shes not.
Because that’s a man to a female lol y’all are living under rock
Her pockets are too.
Of course she gona got to the NBA he is a man planning on a womens team.
This girl went to Russia
OH! she gets paid 10x as much
What a great opportunity for her to become fluent in Russian. And she doesn't even have to pay a tutor. Some people have all the luck.
I luv your sarcastic take very much on point!
And she doesn't have to worry about hearing the national anthem lucky her
@@eddiecagle4806 In Russian prisons apparently they do the Russian anthem every morning. They irony.
Yeah she hates the United States national anthem and all the oppression she had to deal with but I have this feeling Russia will bring back her patriotism for the United States and when and if she comes back she will be proud to be an American we're at least she know she's free. What a life lesson she is learning about real oppression
Uh
She's been through and is still going through times, this is most likely God trying to call out to her. I moved overseas to get a better pay and I was lonely at first. But I started reading my Bible and building a relationship with Jesus Christ. Now I know my true purpose. And God brought the right people and influences in my life. I pray that for Brittney.
EXACTLY!! YOU SAID IT SO RIGHT! I ALSO THINK THAT IT IS A CALL FROM GOD BECAUSE I THINK SHE IS A GOOD SOUL..
God told her to get high?? Is that what you're saying? Or did god tell her to disrespect the national anthem? Both?
Yes I said the same thing. I pray that she finds the lord in this situation that she is in now. Honestly she has been through a lot and you can tell she is very broken. I pray Jesus shows up and she gives her life to him.
I should look into better paying jobs overseas I thought the only work I could get overseas outside of the military was being a contractor in a war zone when we’re at war
🙏 Amen
Child support? Damn
Christopher Reed that’s what I was saying. Government shady as hell for that 😅😂
Christopher Reed Does that mean she really is packing?
don't make sense to me? these not my kids but I have to pay child support anyway?
Want to be a man? Welcome to Child support hahahahahahaha!
@@deadgame3298 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂👿😭😭
"I rocked her"😂😂😂😂😂
yah you and half the WNBA players

she threw one punch that definitely DID NOT rock anybody and then backed up behind the ref...

TheDeadPunch da fuck you talkin about?
Lol. Bronsexuals triggered cause i called your boy out for them loooong ass hugs. How will you defend him for posting videos of himself dancing naked in skin tights?
TheDeadPunch when dudes hug after the series it's a long embrace because they usually be talking to each other ear to ear while doing so. They have to get close also because it's usually loud during those moments.
Tom Storm: I get what they're doing; it's just the visual comes off a little strange, imo. It was a weak joke playing off the first comment. I was irritated that he posted that half naked dancing vid in his gym.

Very true and sad
so sad
I got the f out of Russia, she could've asked me if it's better than US lmao
@@natashka1982 there's a bigger problem than preference or fondness for the place now
Well she wrote her own future. The problem is…she has issues that have never been addressed. She got too big for her own britches, once again. Now she’s begging the US to get her “home” even though she had turned her back on America. Too big for her own good! Sad that we have many young adults in the same situation, sort to say, that just don’t grow up.
Born man, was a mediocre basketball player, declared himself a woman, became a superstar.
Just like that guy that destroyed women's college swimming.
Russia has equal rights for everyone! If you break the law, you'll go to jail!
her voice is deeper then mine
lol mines too.
H Bizzle than*
+Jefferson L I agree. the bitch even paying child support lol.

10 times her US salary, Wow!

Yep...WNBA players are paid pittance compared to NBA....it’s why they go overseas and have to play the entire year
Prayers for you
They are trash? But somehow are getting paid so much more in Russia with very reasonable attendance. I'll bet they are still way more skilled than you shitty bigots.
@@wizzyone1555 they are absolutely nothing compared to NBA players and to be very honest they really aren't good. I've seen retired D3s beating wnba superstars. The wnba lose money which is why they are not paid as well as the man. In terms of revenue the wnba brought in 50mil while nba brought in over 7 billion. Don't comepare the NBA with the wnba
This is why normal people don't watch espn.
Nice to see encouraging comments for once.
it’s crazy that WNBA players get paid more outside of the US. It’s weird that female basketball players are valued more outside of America. I always found it hard to understand.
Larissa Reyes Its because the US has better males at nearly everything, so a women that's great in her league wouldn't scratch the surface of a top 50 nba player, so when she leaves and goes over seas she's more treasured
Larissa Reyes revenue my friend.
top 10000 you mean.
Larissa Reyes What's hard to understand the NBA is in America the WNBA is a lesser valued product here. Duh
Larissa Reyes they’re all garbage
The Cavs could’ve used her
Milly Mil Stop it...lol

She definitely better than jr smith dumbass
andrew gascott Stop my nigga. J.R. might be dumb but he was once considered one of the best 3pt shooters in the league.

She literally sounds like a boy
I thought she was a man when I first heard her, her voice is almost as deep as mine.
If she was a man she'd be able to dunk better
Y’all are living under a rock, that is a man to a female playing WNBA league lol
I bet if they tested her, she would have more testosterone than the average female. Her voice is soo deep.
You can tell she's a girl
girl deserved the punch, nice punch
So true
Definitely
Whole
see he's dad was mad his son wanted to be a girl and play sport's with girls.. thats literally the biggest cheat ever. a 6ft+ male playing with lil girls. i feel sorry for his dad fr
Britney: I wish you the best of life!
I’m confused
Is he transgender?
At least she is still alive. Unlike the Americans that Victor Bout helped to kill.
I seen her just last week at a mall in arizona. She was in a wheel chair. And nobody noticed her except me
Maybe back issues. She's too big to be doing all that running and dunking. I hope she's OK. I like BG. She's been thru a lot and I hope she finds peace. Keep balling.
moodmuzik she has bone bruises and sprained her ankle
moodmuzik that’s what she do you know
HAZZARD shut up rudeness
TheDeadPunch "too big" is your opinion and not a fact. The bigger, the better as it applies to maybe even 90% of basketball players.

There is some kind of disturbing hormonal imbalance going on with this person.
These recent comments are despicable. If her biggest mistake is taking or holding a small amount of drugs that’s not something that deserves so much hate and vitriol.
@@vintage-red-carpetmasonic-38 that’s totally irrelevant to what’s happening in this case. Russian athletes using PED doesn’t really factor into this.

Why does this twisted society wanna focus on her gayness. Tf. She's a beast.
She suppose to be a fucking beast when she's low key a man😂😂😂 tf
It's not her homosexuality. It's the fact that she really seems like a dude, like she's not sharing the fact that she has male organs.
But let's focus on your gayness for that comment Corey.
A beast whos 6,8 and can barely dunk
the "chick" clearly been taking testosterone and then competes against women that's why... does anybody focus on taurasi's "gayness"? no.
Ummmmm😕 she didn't come out really..... I mean everyone knew she was gay already. It's like if you see your car wet in the morning when you wake up, you knew it rained last night you just don't say it out loud. Lol
K Jizzle88 How?!?!? In the video she publicly announced she was gay! That’s how everyone knew!!!! She also told her mom and dad at home when the DIDNT know!! Dumbass
Ummmm....the point was that it was so obvious most people had already probably figured it out before being told.
K Jizzle88 .....This comment got me 😭😭😭😭☠☠☠☠☠
Just because she “looks gay” doesn’t mean she is. There’s a lot of women who look like men who are straight. Don’t be so stereotypical
Average Consumer Are you serious? A blind person could see she was a lesbian. Stop pretending gaydar is not a thing. Look at her. Listen to her voice. Stop playing stupid.
When Britney punched the other player it looks as though she elbowed her first.

Then what else it could be "MAGIC"😂.
Definitely more testerone than an average female.
A girl is tall, flat chested, deep voiced, and only today's society would decide, 'hey, you're gay.' The ridiculous irony of the same society 'defending' women's rights and self esteem so that they're not judged by their appearance but turn around and determine for these very people what they ought to be is incredibly ridiculous. This is a beautiful woman who, because of a perverse environment, accepted what society told her about herself. May the truth set her free.
Who told u to type this long ass shit
Her choice is she doesn't want to be a female...she wants to be a Man.
Too bad she hates the place that made her dreams come true . Karma
That's not a female, I don't care what anyone says

Lmaooo I lost it when the voice over said she had to pay child support lol😂😂😂
damn i didnt know she had that deep of a voice
whatever tho doesnt affect me
0:20 I thought it was her dad or someone else talking at first
Interesting that both women were taken to jail during that domestic violence incident. When its a man/woman incident, usually it's the man hauled off. Woman walks away free. But in this case, the cops are faced with two positives. What do they do? Arrest the lot of them and let it come out in the wash.
This dude really thinks she has to come out LMAO Bro we already know
No 💩💩💩
She is a woman.
No excuse for ignoring law and drugs
She was proud of herself when she punched that girl in the face I rocked her who's getting rocked now
Yes, Now it's taking two knees in Russia.
Why do I get confused when people talk about “evolution” and they’re still the same person?

no lie i was just listing to this and i though a guy was narrating for her, she is a straight up dude
Yep, it's funny how delusional people are. Straight up dude.
This whole story sounds fishy to me. I considered it until the whole ivf thing, then it didn't add up.
Also her father refuses to discuss her sexuality hmmm i wonder why? Yeah that ivf thing sounds fishy AF because those usually take time to actually get the woman pregnant.
@@JCX-9 Her father won’t discuss her sexuality cuz he’s homophobic. Was it really that hard for you? Do you know that intersex people exist?

Why does she get a pass for domestic violence like it’s some adversity story
Yeah, that "overnight" jail stay, I got a little twisted when I heard that
Doesn't someone have to press charges? They probably didn't press charges on one another.
They were both arrested. Neither one at least had bruises in their face. They r wimen to women. Men.r always stronger then women..so it is much different.
She literally lived in Russia she traded her WMBA for the Russian women team for money , now she get caught up over there USA saves her for a arms dealer?? This whole story seems suspicious
