Brittney Griner Signs Record Deal
The $1 million free-agent contract comes as the Connecticut franchise prepares for a scheduled move to Griner's native Houston in 2027.
Griner's signing is expected to significantly bolster the Sun's championship aspirations for their final season in Uncasville.
The deal represents a landmark moment for WNBA player compensation as the league continues to grow in popularity.
Official confirmation is expected on Saturday when the free-agency signing period begins.
