Griner’s return sparks US to 102-76 rout of Latvia

SANTA CRUZ DE TENERIFE, Spain (AP) — Brittney Griner scored 15 points in her first game of the FIBA Women’s Basketball World Cup to lead the U.S. to a 102-76 victory over Latvia on Tuesday night.
Griner missed the first two contests with a mildly sprained right ankle she injured in practice. She came in midway through the first quarter. She scored six straight during a stretch in the second quarter, including an impressive post move where she faked out her defender.
