Schilling has stated in the past that Griner has never denied committing the crime, which he believes is a key factor in the case.The WNBA and NBA commissioners have also released a joint statement on the decision, calling it "unjustified and unfortunate." Both have called for a safe return to the United States for Griner.NBA@NBAWNBA Commissioner Cathy Engelbert and NBA Commissioner Adam Silver issued the following statement regarding Brittney Griner:4621971WNBA Commissioner Cathy Engelbert and NBA Commissioner Adam Silver issued the following statement regarding Brittney Griner: https://t.co/FMQZsHBDVv"WNBA Commissioner Cathy Engelbert and NBA Commissioner Adam Silver issued the following statement regarding Brittney Griner:" - NBADue to the concurrent situation with the war in Ukraine, this case has added significance. US President Joe Biden has stated that Russia has wrongfully detained Griner. He is under heavy pressure to negotiate a deal to bring her back to the United States.Many believe Brittney Griner is being used as a pawn in the negotiations between Russia and the USA. Whether she intended to break the law or not, a nine-year prison sentence seems very harsh for an athlete in her prime. The 31-year-old will be over 40 years old when she is released.
