WNBA star Brittney Griner describes how she was bullied as a child and how basketball helped her cope with depression and open up to her mother about her sexuality.

Griner also discusses her 2015 domestic violence arrest on suspicion of assault and disorderly conduct after an argument with fellow WNBA player Glory Johnson, her then-fiancée.
