LeBron James says Brittney Griner's been in captivity for way too long without the U.S. bringing her home, so if he were the WNBA star, he'd question returning to America.
Bron made the comments during a recent taping of "The Shop" ... when the conversation apparently turned to the incarcerated American hoops star.
"Now, how can she feel like America has her back? I would be feeling like, 'Do I even want to go back to America?'"
It's clear LeBron doesn't believe the U.S. is doing nearly enough to bring BG home.
Of course, Griner was arrested in a Russian airport near Moscow in mid-February ... after Russian authorities said they found vape cartridges with cannabis oil in her bag.
Initially, the American public wasn't made aware Griner was arrested ... which was strategic on the part of America. With the Russia-Ukraine war waging, the U.S. knew Griner could be used by Russia to gain leverage against the West.
But, that strategy only worked for a couple of weeks. Eventually, the news got out, and it's been one of the biggest stories since.

Maybe LeBron James can hook Brittney Griner up with making living arrangements in China. She'll have to follow some rules first. It might be too much to ask her.
“It’s clear LeBron doesn’t believe the U.S. is doing nearly enough to bring BG home.”
Is Mr. Big Mouth doing anything constructive to help her? He has money and influence and knows plenty of other people with the same. What has he been doing?
Oh, the horror!!
Still being treated better than our J6 political prisoners.
The Russians should play some white racist thrash metal in her cell 24/7!
;-)
I agree, and he should join her. So he’s saying she’s better off there? Then why is she asking to be released?
Says the guy who has a mega mansion in Calabasas and makes over 180 million for a 3 yr contract..gee Le Douche, if America is so mean mean mean you can just give up all that dough and LEAVE
“Now, how can she feel like America has her back? I would be feeling like, ‘Do I even want to go back to America?’”

I hope she man’s up and decides to stay with the Russkis.
This is the form of Communism they want here so may as well stay in Russia.
If it wasn’t for the freedoms and opportunities in America for which he shows his ingratitude (among the ugliest of human traits), this boy would be selling wood carvings at an open air market in some sh!thole turd-world country. Eff him and the creature he rode in on. I’m so tired of this crap!
Please do.
🤣
I finally agree with LeBron. She should stay.
It’s your boy that usurped the pResidency; cry me a river.
One wonders, is Le Bron queer or just terminally Black?
bfl
Why don’t we offer the Russians a trade? They KEEP Griner AND get James?
Deal?
I think we have enough evidence to say that James is not very smart.
The sad part is that many people take him seriously.
