6’9 Brittney Griner Has “Bigger Feet” than 7’2 Kareem Abdul-Jabbar As Rare Photo Shows Size Difference

Soon after entering the league as the number one pick in the 2013 draft, Brittney Griner displayed signs of becoming one of the greatest WNBA players ever. As a result, she attracted the attention of many prominent stars who showed their appreciation for her talents, including NBA legends LeBron James and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar.

In fact, King James predicted Brittney Griner to dominate the women’s game in the future after her draft in 2013 and had nothing but high praise for the WNBA star’s game.

Meanwhile, Griner secured the appreciation of another Los Angeles Lakers legend from a different era. In other words, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar posted a picture on social media recording a fun moment he shared with the Phoenix Mercury recruit.

Griner’s current predicament

Earlier this month, Brittney Griner was sentenced to nine years in prison by the Russian judiciary for charges of drug trafficking. In February, airport authorities seized vape cartridges and cannabis oil from Griner’s belongings.

Washington has assured Americans that they are working on a deal to free the 2014 WNBA champion. U.S. diplomats have displayed an interest in a prisoner swap deal with Moscow. However, amid ongoing negotiations, recent reports on Russian penal colonies have raised concerns among Americans.
