Cherelle Griner, the wife of controversial WNBA star Brittney Griner, was a very important figure during the whole Griner saga. Her wife was detained in Russia when she visited the country to join her teammates at UMMC Ekaterinburg. Officials accused Griner of drug charges and she spent the majority of 2022 in a Russian jail.
