Brittney Griner is now officially a mom.
The WNBA player, now a 10-time All-Star, welcomed a baby boy with her wife, Cherelle, she said on CBS Sports’ “We Need to Talk” Friday.
The Griners welcomed a boy — who weighs 7 pounds, 8 ounces — on July 8.
The boy’s name has not been released.
“That’s my guy. He’s amazing,” Griner said. “They said the moment you see them, everything you thought was important just disappears. That’s literally what happened.”
Griner is expected to represent Team USA and then compete in the Paris Olympics, which begin next week.
Griner was part of the gold medal-winning U.S. teams at the 2016 and 2020 Olympics and the 2014 and 2018 World Cup teams that also won gold.
This weekend, Griner is in Phoenix — where she played her entire WNBA career — for the league’s All-Star weekend.
For the big game, which takes place at 8:30 p.m. ET on Saturday, the WNBA All-Stars will face Griner and Team USA in an impressive showcase.
In the first edition of the meeting, the WNBA team defeated Team USA, 93-83, in 2021.
Griner, who has started all 15 of his appearances this season, is averaging 18.6 points, 6.4 rebounds and 1.4 blocks per game with the Mercury.
