CHICAGO -- Former NBA player Enes Kanter Freedom was ejected from Sunday's game between the Indiana Fever and Chicago Sky after a verbal altercation with Sky guard Natasha Cloud.

Kanter Freedom was sitting courtside in a black T-shirt that read: "WOMAN noun. adult human female." When a timeout was called late in the third quarter, Cloud walked toward Kanter Freedom and shouted at him. He was standing with his arms outstretched and took a few steps toward the court before security cut him off and directed him to leave.

Thank you very much and God bless you.

A man attends a sporting event wearing a shirt that stated the dictionary definition of a woman.

A player challenges him and he gets ejected.

Wow. Western Civ 2026 AD

Riots and revolutions to follow. Good luck to us all.

He’s probably the first straight man who actually went to a WNBA game.

Various accounts slant this somewhat. They try to give the impression that it was Enes who is either at fault or partially at fault. Cloud confronted him and he responded. The rest of the team rushed over in support of Cloud. Enes was the one who was ejected. So, a player harasses a fan, the fan responds and gets ejected.

Hang on, I thought he identifies as a woman now, shouldn’t we “respect” this and allow him/her/it to play in the WNBA?

The establishment media is trying so hard to make the WNBA a sport on par with major men’s sports but its still a D-rate clown show. There are more stories about the controversies than the games. Even when the sports media like ESPN tries to build up a player (other than Caitlin Clark, who they never try to build up), the story inevitably turns to the player’s social media drama or the player getting a big head and wanting more money or thinking she is not getting the credit she deserves. And the “ejection from the stadium” stories have taken on a life of their own. The league is so thin-skinned. Here is the latest - Kanter Freedom gets ejected because they don’t like his politics. Before that, we had the comedy of a fan getting ejected because he made a joke about Kahleah Copper’s weave being grabbed off her head.

I think he made his point.

I’m sure he fully expected to be kicked out.

Mission accomplished as far as I’m concerned.

He needs to sue claiming that clouds outbursts made his monthly period unbearable, and cuasing ‘severe psychological disturbances to his womanly psyche, and dare anyone in the wnba to dispute his... errr... her claims!

He should demand that there be a penalty. It was a clear violation. By not imposing a penalty of cloud, they are just exposing their hypocrisy

The WNBA draft ought to be a lot of fun this year...

If the likes of Enes Freedom is allowed in - and picked up as a player, I expect the ratings for the WNBA to go through the roof. Hell, I’d watch clown show.

It would have been epic if he were wearing a blonde wig. Carrington would have lost her s**t.

I wonder if he has eyes on Sophie Cunningham and doing this to draw near to her. Kind of like George Costanza joining the Latvian Orthodox church for a woman.

Also, it would have been hilarious if he had done the Sophie finger point and just laughed at her. She might have come totally unglued and charged at him.
