Brittney Griner returns to basketball court after prison release but "undecided" on WNBA

Newly released Brittney Griner is already back out on the court dunking after picking up a basketball for the first time in 10 months.

Griner was released from prison on Thursday after being detained in Russia since February. The WNBA star was said to be going through hell in prison, after moving to Mordovia in November, but US officials have finally negotiated her release.

While wearing Phoenix Suns shorts and a T-shirt touting Title IX, Griner was said to have gone to a gym on Sunday after landing in San Antonio, and her first move was a slam dunk according to her agent. The 32-year-old has not decided her future since returning from Russia, but is still on the books at WNBA side Phoenix Mercury.
