Brittney Griner will not be traveling with the Phoenix Mercury on their upcoming two-game road trip.
The Mercury announced earlier this weekend that Griner will be staying home to focus on her mental health. The WNBA All-Star is playing in her first season since returning from Russia, where she was imprisoned for nearly a year.
“Mercury center Brittney Griner will not travel with the team on its upcoming two-game road trip to Chicago and Indiana (July 30-August 1) to focus on her mental health. The Mercury fully support Brittney and we will continue to work together on a timeline for her return,” the team announced.

Our thoughts will be with the Phoenix Mercury star as she steps away from her team.
Hopefully, she’ll be back on the court soon.
