Dennis Rodman wants to save Brittney Griner… but the White House doesn’t want to!

Controversial former Chicago Bulls star Dennis Rodman is planning to set foot in Russia as he has a desire to rescue basketball star Brittney Griner, according to Rolling Stone.

Griner is currently serving a nine-year prison sentence in Russia after being arrested for a drug-related charge in early August.

However, it seems that the United States and Russia are in talks about a possible prisoner exchange, but nothing has been concluded yet.

The former number 91 has received permission from Russia to go there, and then he plans to do so this week, but the problem… is that the White House would rather not!

The reason is simple, if Rodman gets involved, it could totally derail the negotiations between the two clans over the prisoner's treaty.

Rumors point to a potential deal involving Russian arms dealer Viktor Bout in return for the incarcerated basketball player.
