  1. The real Brittney has definitely come out. Earlier today, shedding tears, crying, just goofing off, being a big kid. I have a lot of personality.

  2. Just never backing down from a challenge, always embracing your own image. I’m a different player. I’m a different person - large feet, big hands. I don’t have a soft voice.

  3. Just as basketball doesn't define who I am, neither does being gay. But that doesn't mean life was easy growing up.
