Brittney Griner and her wife, Cherelle, have divulged their baby’s unique name ahead of his arrival.

 

Yes, they are having a boy.

The couple shared videos from their baby shower with CBS on Wednesday, revealing the baby’s gender, as well as his name.

The shower was entertaining as Brittney and Cherelle played various baby games, such as racing to finish a baby bottle and dressing a doll while blindfolded.

According to ‘CBS Mornings’ co-host Gayle King, the baby boy will be named “Bash,” which is pretty unique and quite possibly a first, at least in an English-speaking country.

The Phoenix Mercury star took to social media with her spouse last month to reveal they were expecting.

“Can’t believe we’re less than three months away from meeting our favorite human being,” they wrote as the caption to a sonogram photo.

 

Meanwhile, Griner is set to miss several weeks of action due to injury.

 

 

Brittney Griner Is Enjoying A Normal Life Again

Brittney Griner must be relieved to be able to live a normal life again. And her life is set to take on a whole new meaning once Bash is born.

The 33-year-old spent most of 2022 imprisoned in Russia after being caught with vape cartridges at an airport in Moscow.

The center was playing basketball in the country during the WNBA offseason, but things flipped in an instant. Following her detainment, she pleaded guilty and was sentenced to nine years in prison.

Griner was released after 10 months, returning to the United States as part of a prisoner swap in which Russian arms dealer Viktor Bout was freed.

She recalled her experience in an interview with ABC earlier this month and recently launched a memoir titled ‘Coming Home.’

New Georgia Bulldogs QB Jaden Rashada Is Suing Florida Gators Head Coach Billy Napier

Jaden Rashada is reportedly suing Florida Gators head coach Billy Napier over unpaid NIL funds.

The quarterback, who transferred from Arizona to Georgia this offseason, shouldn’t expect a warm welcome whenever he goes to Florida, especially on the back of this latest development.

According to CBS Sports’ John Talty, Rashada has filed a lawsuit against Napier and Gators booster Hugh Hathcock for fraud.

The lawsuit also names school staff member Marcus Castro-Walker and claims that the player committed to Florida because he was promised a $13 million NIL payment that the defendants named in the lawsuit never intended to pay.

It notes that Napier and others “orchestrated and executed a fraud upon Jaden and were substantially and knowingly assisted by one another in carrying out the fraud.”

“Each of their individual schemes would not have succeeded without assistance from one another,” it adds.
