They shot, they scored.
WNBA star Brittney Griner and wife Cherelle Griner checked into the fashion game, making their debut at the 2023 Met Gala May 1 in coordinating custom Calvin Klein. Brittney's monochromatic look featured a sand-colored silk jacket, pants and top, while Cherelle rocked a strapless white gown with black pointed heels.

The pair, who wed in 2019, bounced over to NYC after attending the White House Correspondents' Dinner in Washington, D.C. April 29. Their game plan for that high-profile event saw the Phoenix Mercury star sporting an all-black blazer paired with black pants. As for Cherelle, she stunned in a strapless full-length black gown.
Their Met Gala debut comes nearly five months after the 32-year-old athlete was released from Russian detention. She spent 10 months imprisoned after getting arrested at Moscow's Sheremetyevo International Airport last February for allegedly possessing vape cartridges that contained cannabis oil in her luggage.
Following her December 2022 release, Cherelle, 30, reflected on the couple's long journey.
"My family's whole, I have my person," she told People later that month. "And so I feel the most supported and safe and secure as I've ever felt in life."
And they aren't the only ones who scored during the 2023 Met Gala. Read on to see all the couples on those famous Met steps.
