Look out, future athletes — WNBA star Brittney Griner says her baby on the way will 100% be involved in sports … telling TMZ Sports it’s a no-brainer!!
The Phoenix Mercury center has been a basketball star her whole life … from recording 52 dunks her high school senior year to winning a title at Baylor in 2012 and earning a WNBA championship two years later.
Now that Griner and her wife, Cherelle, announced they’re expanding their family … we had to ask if the kiddo will follow in her footsteps and grow up with a ball in his hands.
“Yeah, yeah,” Griner said, “Sports, what?! C’mon now!! Of course!!”
We shoulda expected that, huh??
As for her own career, the nine-time All-Star — who has been sidelined with a toe injury — hopes to get back on the court with Diana Taurasi and her other teammates very soon.
The WNBA has never been more popular — especially with this new class of stars like Caitlin Clark, Angel Reese and Cameron Brink — and Griner also weighed in on their big performances.
“I think it’s amazing for women’s sports, with these rookies — I think it’s amazing!”
As for the baby … he’s due sometime in July — so get those sports toys ready, Griners!!
