Brittney Griner may have been upset with the refs during halftime, but a moment with her baby after the game (a win, by the way) made up for it.

Griner was notably upset by the time halftime rolled around during Saturday's Atlanta Dream-Dallas Wings game, and during her halftime interview with CBS Sports' Autumn Johnson, she went over for a "friendly chat" with the refs as they were walking past her. While the entire exchange wasn't audible, what was audible was Griner passionately telling the refs to be "f------better."

As expected, the interview resulted in some pretty viral (and funny) moments, but what was most important was Griner sharing a sweet moment with her baby after the Dream's 83-75 victory. 

To start the 2025 campaign, BG is averaging 14.8 ppg, 7.8 ppg, 1 apg and 0.3 spg in 28.5 minutes while shooting 49.0 percent from the floor. Next up on the Atlanta Dream's schedule is a matchup this afternoon against the Connecticut Sun. The team enters the matchup (2-2) for the season thus far.
