Enes Kanter Freedom has shared his account of the courtside confrontation with Chicago Sky guard Natasha Cloud that preceded his removal from Sunday’s WNBA game.
According to Freedom, the exchange began after he celebrated Sophie Cunningham making a three-pointer. He said that several possessions later, Cloud turned toward him and began “screaming and yelling” while repeatedly using profanity.
Freedom recalled one remark he says Cloud directed at him during the confrontation.
“SHE’S NOT GONNA SLEEP WITH YOU!” he quoted Cloud as shouting.
The former NBA player also criticized the language he says was used during the exchange, particularly with young fans nearby.
“I just cannot believe that she was just cussing and using those F-bombs in front of all these kids,” Freedom said.
The confrontation eventually led to Freedom being escorted out of the arena.
