Brittney Griner Reacts to Major Atlanta Dream News on Wednesday

Brittney Griner is currently playing in her first season with the Atlanta Dream. 

Griner signed with the Dream during the offseason, after making a name for herself as one of the most dominant players in the WNBA with the Phoenix Mercury. 

While she dealt with a slight issue in the injury category, missing some time with a knee injury, Griner has made her mark with the Dream early in her tenure. 

During her first season with the Dream, Griner has been a witness to one of the top players in the WNBA, Allisha Gray. 

On Wednesday, the WNBA announced Gray as the Eastern Conference Player of the Month.

Upon the release of the announcement, Griner reposted the news on social media, showing support for her Atlanta Dream teammate. 

The Western Conference Player of the Month was Minnesota Lynx star Napheesa Collier.
