Former NBA star Enes Kanter, who changed his name to “Freedom” after receiving his American citizenship, has been a huge critic of the NBA. The hypocrisy the league and many of its owners and star players display in regard to human rights issues, particularly in China are well documented, but very few call it out. Now that Kanter is allegedly blackballed from the league, he is threatening to take a blowtorch to commissioner Adam Silver and the rest of the association. Check this out.
Former NBA star and activist Enes Kanter Freedom figures if he cannot get back into the league, then he will just burn it all down.
The former NBA center recently threatened he is going to expose the National Basketball Association.
Freedom has not explained exactly how he plans on exposing them or what inside information he currently has on the league that would blow the doors off the league.
Enes Freedom says he plans to expose the NBA.

It is widely understood by the sports consuming public that the NBA makes an obscene amount of money from China. Because of this unsavory relationship with one of America’s enemies, the league, its owners and most of its players stay tight-lipped when it comes to discussing China’s well documented human rights atrocities. From the genocide of Uyghur Muslims, to the alleged sweat shops and child labor used to produce much of the apparel the league features, the NBA simply will not discuss China.
Why would they? The league is famous for its hypocrisy. It should also be noted that the league pretends to be outspoken allies of the lgbtq air force, but also plays exhibition games and wishes to expand in the United Emirates. In case you didn’t know, that part of the world is notorious for executing gay people. Homosexuality is strictly forbidden, but they also have lots and lots of money, something the NBA absolutely loves. Apparently, more than gay people. The league stands in stark contrast to Freedom Kanter.
The fun is about to begin…very soon!
Hey #NBA& Adam Silver;
You picked the wrong guy to fight.I’m gonna expose your hypocrisy to the world & I’m going to do it with a smile on my face.
That is a promise.P.S- I’m tagging you to make sure that you get this notification @NBA pic.twitter.com/dozf2NVF3s

Last week, Freedom had a major announcement when he declared that he is officially considering running for public office. Freedom said that “when the time is right,” he would like to become a member of Congress.
In 2021, he became a U.S. citizen and officially changed his name to Enes Kanter Freedom in celebration of his American citizenship.
He last played for the Boston Celtics in the 2021-22 season. Kanter Freedom is an 11-season NBA veteran, who has career averages of 11.2 points and 7.8 rebounds in 748 games with the Jazz, Thunder, Knicks, Trail Blazers, and Celtics.
Kanter should still be on an NBA roster. This isn’t a Colin Kaepernick situation where a player pretends to want back in the league but fails to show up to try-outs. Kanter has a legitimate beef. He is being blackballed for not towing the company line and actually having morals and a soul. It is unclear what dirt Freedom has on the league, but it will certainly be interesting to see where this goes in the coming weeks.
