Former NBA first round pick Enes Kanter Freedom declares for 2027 WNBA Draft
Fox News ^

Former NBA Draft first round pick (3rd overall in 2011) Enes Kanter Freedom, who has been an adamant opponent of LeBron James, the Chinese Communist Party, Nike, along with more political activism, which he believes blackballed him from the NBA, has officially declared himself a prospect for the 2027 WNBA Draft. Yes, I’m serious.

In the aftermath of Sophie Cuningham making a definitive stance that women’s sports should remain female, many coaches and players have opened up the floodgates for men in their league. Golden State Valkyries forward Gabby Willliams even said, "I would welcome a trans athlete on my team or against my team any time." Throughout this whole saga, the WNBA has remained silent about protecting fairness in their league, so Freedom is putting their feet to the fire in a hilarious way.

This is brilliant - and courageous.

The pretzels on the left are going to get twisted like they have never been twisted.

If he doesn’t get drafted, he can sue for discrimination; let’s see how far this transgender nonsense will go.

I really hope he (she...they?) really goes for it. It would make for a wild 30 for 30.

Remember the teacher who was born male with the HUGE fake boobs and it was beginning to appear that he was making a mockery of the female designation. I wonder what happened to him.

“Kanter became an American citizen on November 29, 2021, and also legally changed his name to Enes Kanter Freedom at the same time to mark the occasion.[158]”

“ If he doesn’t get drafted, he can sue for discrimination; let’s see how far this transgender nonsense will go.”

He could sue every single franchise.
Anybody know how many there are?

Seattle Storm are back baby!

In WA State you cannot discriminate based on gender expression or gender identity. Local fools amended the state constitution to make gender identity or gender expression a protected class. There is no test, such as transitioning, hormone treatments, “life experience”, or anything. You say you are a woman or man at any given moment, and that’s what you are.

Seattle Storm will have to move states to avoid hiring one of these ex-NBA “women.” They could play a game as a woman and then go out clubbing as a man, nothing in the law prevents that. Their gender expression does not have to be enduring. Switching back and forth is fine and protected the same as race or religion.

A traditional Korean style (nude) female only spa lost their case to prevent trans from coming in, and their only rule was no penises allowed (surgically transitioned trans were welcome). The weirdo who sued them and won, was a fat dude with a beard who made no effort to appear female or transition.

Seattle Storm will be the next WNBA champs.
