For the unversed, Griner was convicted of smuggling illegal narcotics into Russia while she flew there to play an off-season tournament. They sentenced her to 9 years in jail under a penal code. However, the US government swapped her for a Russian prisoner in America, and the WNBA player finally arrived on US soil after 9 months of jail. Now while on the plane, insider footage sparked the notion of her being related to the former SNL host Pete Davidson. And no, they are not dating! Here’s everything you need to know about it:

How is NBA player Brittney Griner related to Pete Davidson?

Apparently, whilst she was flying, an insider person posted footage of her in her airport fit. She wore a black beanie along with a red and black plaid shirt and probably a cargo. Now if you believe in doppelgangers, you will be startled to learn that as soon as they saw the clip, and Twitterati associated her with Pete Davidson as his look-alike. The former Saturday Night Live show host is also popular for wearing oversized shirts and some sweatpants, a signature fashion style.

If you cannot believe us, have a look at the tweet and the spam of fan reactions that followed it:

In the video, Griner admits that she is happy to be home. However, in her plaid shirt to which Davidson is sometimes partial, and the beanie look; the NBA player appeared to be the twin of Ariana Grande and Phoebe Dynevor’s former love interest. And the Twitter world undoubtedly lapped on it.
