This just appears to be a crazed fan going wild. It could have been a whole lot worse and thankfully Griner and her teammates are ok.
WNBA star Brittney Griner suffered a minor injury from a knife attack in China on Monday, her agent, Lindsay Kagawa Colas told USA TODAY Sports on Tuesday.
Colas said Griner was attacked and cut by a man with a knife while trying to board the team bus after practice on Monday.
Here is how Griner described the incident on her Instagram page.
“First let me say I’m ok!!!! But last night me and 3 my teammates got chase and attack by a man with a big ass knife got a little scratch and my teammates walk away unharmed! He chase us into our bus and had us corned yelling at us then he finally left! Ugh lets just say I’m ready to get out this city we are visiting! Life can be took at any moment! Cherish every moment! AGAIN IM OK! Thank you to everyone that has been checking on me!”
That sounds pretty scary, they need better security for the team. The man got away on foot, but a police report has been filed.
