WNBA star Brittney Griner revealed Wednesday that she contemplated suicide while jailed in Russia after her arrest on drug charges in 2022.
Griner, whose memoir "Coming Home" is scheduled to be released Tuesday, discussed the ordeal with ABC's Robin Roberts on "20/20" during an hourlong interview.
"I wanted to take my life more than once in the first weeks," Griner said. "I felt like leaving here so badly."
