“The Little Sister Beat Up the Big Sister”: Brittney Griner Once Made an Honest Admission of Why Sister Pier Never Liked Playing with Her

Controversial WNBA star Brittney Griner has had a tough time growing up. She was always different from everyone, which gave people an avenue to bully her.

Her father, Raymond Griner, is very supportive of her daughter currently. However, this wasn’t always the case. Griner was quite close to her two sisters. She has a younger sister who is 10 years younger than her and an older sister who is 5 years older than her.

Although they were great to Griner, they did not participate in normal sibling activities like playing with each other. Pier, Brittney Griner’s elder sister is totally opposite to the WNBA star. According to Griner, Pier was girly while Brittney was ‘rough-and-tumble’.

Talking about her relationship with her parents and siblings in her book, Griner also talked about instances when she would make her sister cry which is why Pier did not like playing with her sister.
