No One Finer than Baylor’s Griner!

Maybe it’s me, but I’m thinking that Baylor’s superstar baller Brittney Griner is so good, she could potentially make it in the NBA. Okay, I know she’d never, ever be able to deal with the strength of today’s low post players, but it would be fun to see for sure.

Either way, it’s crystal clear that Griner has no equal in the women’s game today and that she will undoubtedly go on to the WNBA where she’ll dominate and garner more fame and fortune.

I’ve also got to admit that it’s nice to see the maturation and growth that Griner has shown since punching out some poor girl a year ago for doing some ill hoops s**t to her just over a year ago.

Needless to say, I love me some Brittney Griner – and clearly, there’s no one finer in the women’s game today!

No One Finer than Brittney Griner!

When I first saw a YouTube clip of Baylor junior center Brittney Griner dunking a basketball as a high school senior four years ago, I knew Griner wasn’t just some tall stiff that possessed a bunch of height and no coordination whatsoever.

I knew the first time I saw Griner dribbling like a point guard that she had some serious skill and a chance to go down as one of the game’s all-time greats.

Fast forward four years and Griner, now a 6-8 junior at Baylor University, has her team poised to win the national championship as the clear-cut No. 1 team in the nation.

"In my opinion, she's the best player in the college game today," Baylor head coach Kim Mulkey said of Griner. "She's our leader, but she has great players around her who make her go."

Griner is averaging a career-high 24.4 points per game this season to go along with a whopping 11.8 rebounds and 5.2 blocked shots per game, averages that almost mirror her career averages at Baylor.

Griner was the lone college player on the USA Basketball national team that went on its European tour this summer and now, the gifted junior is looking better than ever.

"The international experience will help her game," Mulkey said. "She's more mature and more polished."
