Monday night, Brittney Griner took the court for her final home court game as a Baylor women's basketball player..... and man, was it won to remember!!! Brittney Griner was DOMINANT all night long, offering a women's NCAA season high 50pts making 21-28 fgs!!! She displayed it all....drop steps left and right, jump hooks left and right, and even turn around jumpers but there was one play that took the cake...... Brittney Griner caught a pass on the left side of the low block, made a quick spin move right toward the baseline, took off on two feet for the baseline dunk!!!!
I mean this girl is not just tall or just long, she can play! The foot work, the effort, the poise, the timing and anticipation. She has it all. The dominance, the swag, the fire, and the highlights to top it all off. The way she plays the game at her size has and (assuming no serious injury) will continue to garner the attention of many. Up and coming girls have a player of a different type to idolize their sport. She has broken many records in her four years and still is as she goes along. She could change the level of media coverage for the sport as well as endorsement parameters for the sport. Many great women players have played but she may be the first of her kind. Women's basketball has been under sold for too long. Brittney Griner could change the landscape. The new ceiling...no ceiling!! Brittney Griner......Don't sleep!
Re-live the moment...The Griner Dunk!!
