Former NBA player Enes Kanter Freedom was ejected from Sunday night’s game between the Indiana Fever and Chicago Sky after a confrontation with WNBA player Natasha Cloud, in an incident that comes amid Kanter’s recent mocking stance about transgender athletes by announcing he would “declare” for the 2027 WNBA Draft.

Kanter attended Sunday’s game wearing a black shirt with the text “WOMAN noun. adult human female.”

During the third quarter, after Cloud had scored for her team, she turned and walked towards where the former NBA player was seated, appearing to shout something and point at him.

Kanter stood up from his seat and walked towards Cloud with his arms spread wide near courtside before security staff and other Chicago Sky players intervened.
