US State Department speaks out
The US State Department says it is closely following the case. Britney Griner’s legal team is updating the department. But Moscow is not allowing her consular access. In the past, consular access was provided for all Americans in detention in Russia. And since the Russian invasion of Ukraine arrested Americans are no longer allowed what is considered due process under international law. “We have repeatedly asked for consular access to these detainees and have consistently been denied access. Russia must abide by its legal obligations and allow us to provide consular services for U.S. citizens detained in Russia," the State Department spokesperson said. "We take our responsibility to assist U.S. citizens seriously, and we will continue to press for fair and transparent treatment for all U.S. citizens when they are subject to legal processes overseas."Britney Griner hostage in Russia

She is the only NCAA basketball player to both score 2,000 points and block 500 shots. And she currently plays for the Phoenix Mercury which holds the 2021 WNBA championship.
