ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) — Brittney Griner had a Texas homecoming, in private and on the court with the Phoenix Mercury in the WNBA star’s home state six months after her release from a Russian prison.

And less than two hours before Wednesday night’s game, she met in private with the women’s basketball team from Baylor, the campus 100 miles away where she was part of a 40-0 national championship in 2012. “Close to home, AAU team is here, my high school came up, Baylor came down.
