Brittney Griner, the Phoenix Mercury center and one of the most dominant players in WNBA history, spent ten months in Russian custody in 2022 over vape cartridges in her luggage, sentenced to nine years and sent to a penal colony as relations collapsed over Ukraine. The United States traded arms dealer Viktor Bout to bring her home in December. She returned to the Mercury's floor the next season, and the roar when she first touched the ball said what the trade had cost and bought.
That was 1 of the hidden places.
