WNBA icon and two-time Olympic gold medalist Brittney Griner will release a new book, "Coming Home," detailing her harrowing incarceration in Russia and subsequent release, "Good Morning America" announced exclusively on Tuesday morning.
Griner's memoir will hit shelves May 7.
"Coming Home is a story of hope and survival, of before and after," Griner said in an exclusive statement to ABC News.
"'Coming Home' begins in a land where my roots developed and is the diary of my heartaches and regrets. But, ultimately, the book is also a story of how my family, my faith, and the support of millions who rallied for my rescue helped me endure a nightmare," she continued.
