WNBA star Brittney Griner is finally back in the United States after being detained at a Russian prison for 294 days. The freed WNBA star will undergo a "debriefing" followed by support to reintegrate her. Also, there are new details surrounding Griner's life in prison. It turns out she cut off her locs because her hair would freeze while taking showers in the cold Russian weather. Griner was too tall to sit at tables to sew uniforms so she was assigned the task of carrying fabric.
