Brittney Griner is living every day to the fullest.

The WNBA star and her wife, Cherelle Griner, enjoyed a daytime date at the Indian Wells Masters Tournament over the weekend.

Brittney, 32, and Cherelle, 30, shared sweet photos from their weekend in the California desert to their Instagram stories as the WNBA star prepares to return to the court in May.

"Might be a cloudy day but it's sunny by me @cherelletgriner," Brittney wrote over a boomerang selfie of the couple in the stadium's stands.
