Brittney Griner's alleged mug shot was shared by Russia State media, marking the first time the WNBA star has been seen "publicly" since her detainment in February.

Russian officials say they've launched a drug trafficking investigation ... and if convicted, Griner could face a decade behind bars in Russia.
