Congressman Colin Allred (D., Texas) says that U.S. officials have made a “very good offer” to Russia in exchange for women’s basketball star Brittney Griner.
Allred told TMZ that he’s as confident as ever that Griner will be able to return home and that the proposed swap with Russia is “exactly what the foreign country is looking for” in a deal for Griner.
“The ball is entirely in the Russians’ court. I think prospects, in my opinion, look better now than they have really at any point since she was taken,” Allred said.
