The Russian court has sentenced WNBA star Brittney Griner to 9 years. After the sentencing, there has been a country-wide outrage. Many felt that the sentencing is too harsh. A lot of celebrities voiced their frustration with the sentencing including NBA superstars and retired legends. Many celebrities from the rap community also shared their outrage with the sentencing. Furthermore, some questioned the efforts of the U.S. government in bringing Griner back. The country has however shown its stance by classifying Griner as “wrongfully detained.”

But that has not helped so far so Hall of Famer Dennis Rodman decided to take matters into his own hands. He said that he will travel to Russia and help Griner get back to home soil. Unsurprisingly, this was not well received. As reports, a senior Biden administration official said that he is more likely to hurt than help.

Because Dennis Rodman says that he is going to Russia to negotiate her release… If somebody kidnaps me, don’t send Dennis Rodman. Send ‘Air Bud’ okay? I’ll take anyone…”

He continued, “…But listen if Dennis Rodman frees Brittney Griner when the White House could not, President Biden should have to marry Carmen Electra and get a d**k piercing. Right?…”?
