James says in trailer for show, James says ‘Now, how can she feel like America has her back?’

LeBron James is publicly sharing his disappointment about the handling of Brittney Griner’s case, criticizing the United States’ efforts to bring the WNBA All-Star home in a trailer for an upcoming episode of his television show: “The Shop: Uninterrupted.”

“Now, how can she feel like America has her back?” James said in the trailer. “I would be feeling like, `Do I even wanna go back to America?”' During the weeks since day 110, in addition to the trial beginning and the guilty plea, Griner’s wife Cherelle has had a phone conversation with President Joe Biden. Biden also received a letter from Brittney Griner on July 4 and sent a letter back to her which she was given in court last week.Klutch Sports Group, the agency that represents James, did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken has said Washington will continue to work for the release of Griner, as well as other Americans held by Moscow, including former Marine Paul Whelan.
