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.

From what I have read, the arms dealer is not likely to be let out early, so a prisoner swap involving him is unlikely.
There is a possibility that the judge will sentence her to time served, void her visa and have her put on the next available flight towards the USA.
Making the Russians think they might get something for her makes it less likely that they’ll just toss her out of Russia.
He has a point...as long as him and his fellow idiots are able to inflict democrat politicians on us.
Agree, no one is stopping the Big Crybaby from leaving. Actually, LeBron GTFO of this country.
I thought my statement above was pretty good.
But I am like the 40th FReeper to have the thought...
You cannot beat FReepers for great ideas!
Go be with her, you ignorant jerk.
“’Equal justice under law’ is a phrase engraved on the West Pediment, above the front entrance of the United States Supreme Court building in Washington D.C.”
Wikipedia via google
“Equal justice under law” is what leftists wanted even long before 1935.
I bet she doesn’t feel that way anymore 😂
Just like LaBron would be begging for the US if he was locked up abroad.
Go join her, you ungrateful POS.
In some countries, crime doesn’t pay.
She deserves less than Bidin & Co. gave the soldiers and allies in Afghanistan....
LaBaran might just go to China and stay since he hate whites and America so much.
Why work to bring her home if all she’ll do is insult the country and whine about how hateful it is. Let her stay in Russia for a while. She couldn’t leave her weed alone for the short trip? Too bad. It’s illegal in Russia. You are a guest there and should follow their laws. Neither your black card or queer card will work there.
If I were the Russians I would hold her for the full ten years—nothing to lose, everything to gain.
If there is no deal there is no deal.
She probably had that specail TSA fasttrack passport service along with getting waived thru with the Diplomats....
Brittney herself is probably sitting in Russia being told about LeBron’s remarks from a Russian Prison Guard who can barely speak English. Brittney thinks: “Shut-Up, Lebron!
You wanna trade places with me? Come on, Bro, walk the talk!”
LOL! By all means, she should feel free to remain locked up in Russia. I couldn’t possibly care less.
How about a swap? Then we’ll check in with Lebron in about 6 months.
If it weren’t for athletic ability, these two morons would be f****** my order up at McDonald’s.
