Former NBA center Enes Kanter Freedom has drawn sharp criticism after his confrontation with Chicago Sky guard Natasha Cloud. Stephen A Smith backed Kanter's broader argument about WNBA eligibility rules but called his conduct at the game "classless" and "excessive."
Kanter attended Sunday's Indiana Fever-Sky game wearing a shirt reading, "WOMAN. Noun. Adult human female." The former NBA player has also declared his intention to enter the 2027 WNBA Draft as part of his protest against the league's eligibility rules.
The situation escalated during the third quarter after Cloud scored and turned toward Kanter. Kanter stood up and stepped toward the court before security intervened and escorted him from Wintrust Arena.
