Paige Bueckers Calls on President Biden to Help Secure Brittney Griner’s Release
Set Number: X163998 TK2
UConn women’s basketball star Paige Bueckers has one simple message for President Joe Biden.
Bueckers ended her interview with Malika Andrews on ESPN’s NBA Today calling for Biden and United States officials to do whatever it takes to bring Brittney Griner, who has been detained in Russia since February 17, home.
“Just a message to President Biden, the government and anybody with high enough power to help get Brittney Griner back home. I believe it’s way far due for her to come home and she’s an American. She’s a hero. She’s our sister in the WNBA and she’s just family to the whole United States. So, just whatever it takes to get her home, I think it’s definitely time,” Bueckers said.
