Day 18, Brittney Griner
Brittney Griner
October 18, 1990
Pro Basketball Player
"Brittney Griner plays for the Phoenix Mercury, but has been receiving attention long before she joined the WNBA. The #1 high school women's basketball player in 2009 and the first NCAA player in her sport to score 2,000 points, this star athlete has a long list of awards and titles to her name, and she's hasn't even been out of college a full year. In April 2013, Brittney let the public know in a Sports Illustrated interview that she is open about being a lesbian. The ESPY Award winning best female college athlete of 2013 was recently featured in "Journey of the Gay Athlete," a CNN documentary."
"Don't Hide Who You Really Are."
