After an exhaustive appearing examination concerning their captures, which they say included meetings with the players and witnesses and also auditing "the police report, medicinal records, photographs and different materials," the WNBA suspends Griner and Johnson for seven amusements without pay each, discovering that they are similarly at flaw. In an announcement, the WNBA says their record of the episode was "generally undisputed," and portrays it subsequently:

Brittney and Glory were included in a physical squabble with one another at their home. It started when Glory pushed Brittney in the shoulder and Brittney pushed Glory in the back of the neck.

Games Illustrated distributes a story on the battle that prompted Griner and Johnson's captures, which incorporates data from a therapeutic assessment (given to them by Johnson's attorney) finished two days after the captures. The assessment says Johnson was hit twice by a "hard conveying case," and a CT sweep shows she endured a blackout. In a meeting, Johnson says that Griner was the attacker:

In case I'm being battled," Johnson said amid a selective meeting with SI.com last Thursday. "I'm not simply gonna sit back …  there's presumably a superior approach to handle it. Yet, at the time …  you're simply considering securing yourself and doing what you have to do to defend yourself."

She likewise debate the WNBA's decision about the occurrence, keeping in mind she is plainly reluctant to say that she is blameless and Griner is liable, she pretty much does:

"[The WNBA] unquestionably thought about it," Johnson said, alluding to her wounds and how they happened. "Also, that is another reason it shocked me that they thought of the same conclusion. I'm not going to toss Brittney under the transport …  and she's not going to toss me under the transport …  [but] what the [WNBA] did not say in the announcements they discharged was that I pled not blameworthy …  So for them to discharge an announcement saying that we were both liable in the circumstance, its not right. It's not right …  Brittney pled liable …  Brittney comprehends why I pled not blameworthy, and I comprehend why she pled blameworthy …  she was notwithstanding eager to address whoever she expected to, to get the point over."

Games Illustrated distinguishes numerous cases of perplexity in regards to the case. Johnson says that cops advised her that when a same-sex couple gets into a battle, the strategy is to capture them both, while a Goodyear cop tells SI that the arrangement was either "misjudged or distorted" to Johnson, and that both sides are captured just when officers can't focus the attacker. In the wake of being requested that remark, the Tulsa Shock (Johnson's group) remains by the WNBA's discoveries, while the Phoenix Mercury (Griner's group) say they are confounded in light of the fact that the restorative assessment data wasn't in the police report they saw.

In any case, Johnson tells SI that she adores Griner, and SI composes "all through last Thursday's [May 30] telephone discussion, she giggled at whatever point Griner's name came up—there was a daintiness in her voice, notwithstanding when she was depicting something troublesome between them." Johnson likewise says she and Griner have met with ripeness specialists, yet that she is anticipating playing against Griner this season.

The Tulsa Shock declares that Johnson is pregnant and will miss the forthcoming season. In the announcement Johnson says:

"It has dependably been a fantasy of mine to begin a family with somebody I cherish," said Johnson-Griner. "Being an expert competitor that plays year round, there is never an immaculate time to get pregnant without putting my vocation on hold.

The whole process, from taking in our richness alternatives, to making the penances essential nine months prior to this tyke is conceived, is only setting me up to turn into an incredible wife and a far superior mother. The hardest part is sitting out this WNBA season, being far from my adoring colleagues, and not having the capacity to be on the court and play for our committed fans.

At this moment, I have my wellbeing to stress over, as well as the soundness of this minimal one resting inside me. Rest guaranteed, I will be back next season, more grounded and more prepared to play then ever!"

TMZ reports that Griner has recorded revocation papers, only 28 days after the wedding. The papers affirm "misrepresentation and pressure" and that Griner was "forced into marriage under coercion by [Johnson's] debilitating articulations." They likewise say that Griner has no natural association with the youngster that Johnson is pregnant with.

ESPN acquires the accompanying proclamation from Griner:

"Last Wednesday, Glory and I consented to either legitimately separate, get separated, or revoke our marriage. I can affirm that today I petitioned for an invalidation. In the week before the wedding, I endeavored to delay the wedding a few times until I finished directing, yet regardless I proceeded with it. I now understand that was a mix-up."

They likewise talk with Johnson's specialists, who tells ESPN that she is "greatly hurt and sucker punched" by the unforeseen recording, and that Johnson "cherishes Brittney and made a tremendous penance to convey a tyke, put her vocation on hold, put resources into their relationship and their future."

In the interim, the WNBA season opens all at once, and the Mercury beat the San Antonio Stars while the Shock lose to the Minnesota Lynx. Neither Johnson nor Griner play.

So in the previous six weeks Griner and Johnson purchased a house, were captured, had a wedding, got pregnant, and now are evidently isolating. Those are every pivotal event; any of them happening is a major ordeal, not to mention each of them five. Given Johnson's evident shock at the recording of the abrogation and the way that she is pregnant, there is unquestionably more to accompany this story. I feel really positive about saying that it is
