NBA legend Dennis Rodman said Saturday he "got permission" to go to Russia to seek the release of WNBA star Brittney Griner, who was sentenced to nine years in prison on drug charges.

The basketball Hall of Famer, who was at a sneaker convention in Washington, D.C., over the weekend, told NBC News he was looking to head over to Moscow at some point this week.

"I got permission to go to Russia to help that girl. I'm trying to go this week," he told the outlet, adding he knew Russian President Vladimir Putin "too well."

Rodman has a history of interacting with world leaders.

Knowing Rodman's past and Russia's current state of mind, he better not bring so much as a caffeine drink with him.

On another note, just curious what exactly Rodman plans to use for leverage here? He doesn't have shite that Putin would want.

Lord...if this is what represents us as a country we're in deep shite! Wonder if he's only asking for the Sasquatch's release or will he include the white guy who has been there way longer than Sasquatch!

BREAKING: Dennis Rodman arrested at airport in Moscow and charged with smuggling marijuana.

Double BREAKING: Russia, surprisingly ,isn't North Korea. Rodman was able to woo Kim Jong un because the nk dictator hasn't seen the world. He thought spinning a basketball on a finger was the most magical, science defying thing ever.

But seriously.. it would've better to have rodman invite a nk official to Russia to advocate. At least Russia and nk aren't enemies right now. Or, our white house could've tried to invite a Chinese official to Russia to advocate. We're at war with Russia. We're spearheading the entire west to target Russia and rich Russians abroad. In that situation, Americans shouldn't go into Russia right now, imo.

Why is it that when a Democrat is in the White House, our best diplomat is the highly-pierced cross-dressing Bad Boy who couldn't make a free throw if his life depended on it? Don't we have a Secretary of State?
