Brittney Griner and Glory Johnson tied the not Friday in Arizona, not even a month after the WNBA players were arrested for assaulting each other. Guess they made up and then some! As about 75 guests looked on, the glowing brides were married beneath an archway at the Pointe Hilton Tapatio Cliffs Resort outside of Phoenix. The theme was “desert elegance” in the city where Griner plays center for the three-time women’s pro basketball champion Phoenix Mercury. Johnson, a forward with the Tulsa Shock, wore a full-length, strapless champagne gown which she selected on TLC’s Say Yes to the Dress . The couple were engaged last August. In April, Brittney Griner and Glory Johnson made news after an argument at their home in Goodyear, Ariz. It was ugly, as it resulted in arrests of both for assault and disorderly conduct; Griner accepted a plea deal to enter domestic violence counseling . Johnson enrolled in counseling voluntarily. Charges against both were subsequently dismissed, and Griner issued a humbling statement: “It is never OK for an argument to turn physical. This will never happen again, and I take my relationship and my responsibility as a role model seriously.” “I am committed to making positive changes and I plan to use what I have learned to set a good example and help make a difference in the world.” Congratulations to the couple on their wedding and we’re glad they have put this incident behind them, rather than let it define them.
