WNBA Atlanta Dream player Brittany Griner is coming under fire for appearing to use racially charged language after fouling out on a play against 2024 Rookie of the Year and Indiana Fever star Caitlin Clark on Thursday.
In her fifth and final foul against Clark, sending her to the bench for the rest of the game, Griner reportedly appeared to elbow Clark in the face.
Griner, it can be recalled, was found guilty of drug smuggling with criminal intent and sentenced to nine years in prison in a Russian court in August 2022 after she brought her weed into the country.
Joe Biden infamously traded Russia the “Merchant of Death,” Viktor Bout, for WNBA pot-smoking star Brittney Griner. Bout was reportedly back in business, caught selling $10 million in arms to Houthi rebels in Yemen just last year.
After the foul, Griner is seen on the sidelines saying something, which many speculate is “Trash f*cking White girl” in reference to Clark.

Earlier in the game, Clark reportedly had another testy exchange with Dream player Rhyne Howard, where the two nearly clashed. “I’m not scared of you,” Clark said as a teammate held Howard back.
Former NCAA swimmer and women’s sports activist Riley Gaines pointed out the hypocrisy and anti-White culture in America.
“Imagine if Clark had said the inverse,” said Gaines.
Brittney Griner appeared to call Caitlin Clark “trash” and a “f***ing white girl” after fouling out last night.
Just a reminder: this is who we traded for the Russian Merchant of Death.

If Clark had said “f*cking black girl”– or anything that even mentioned Griner’s race, the WNBA would probably expel her, the woke cancel culture mob would riot, and she would probably receive credible death threats.
Will the WNBA investigate this incident? Don’t hold your breath.
