Brittney Griner and wife Cherelle Griner have announced the birth of their first child.
The Phoenix Mercury star shared the news with CBS Sports Friday ahead of the 2024 WNBA All-Star Game in Phoenix.
The couple welcomed the baby boy on July 8.
"That's my man. He is amazing," Griner told CBS Sports. "They said as soon as you see them, everything that you thought mattered just goes out the window. That's literally what happened."
Griner said that he will be called "pops."
Griner participated in the WNBA All-Star skills competition on Friday night and will play in the WNBA All-Star Game Saturday before going to Paris for the 2024 Olympics as a member of the U.S. women's basketball team.
"It kind of sucks because I have to leave, but at the same time, he will understand," Griner told CBS Sports.
"My whole phone has turned into him now," Griner added.
Brittney Griner and Cherelle Griner married in June 2019.
