Former NBA player Enes Kanter Freedom ejected from Sky game after clash with Natasha Cloud

Former NBA player Enes Kanter Freedom was ejected from a Chicago Sky game Sunday night after a heated confrontation with guard Natasha Cloud during the team's 113-90 loss to the Indiana Fever. The exchange occurred in the third quarter when Cloud, seated near the baseline, erupted at Kanter Freedom after scoring, requiring teammates to hold her back as he stepped toward the court before security escorted him out. Sky coach Tyler Marsh voiced support for Cloud, who later posted on Threads affirming her protection of the transgender community. Kanter Freedom, who wore a shirt defining "woman," has recently inserted himself into the transgender athlete debate following Fever guard Sophie Cunningham's comments, claiming to be a WNBA prospect. The league has dismissed such declarations as publicity stunts, noting no transgender players are in the WNBA. Cloud led the Sky with 16 points in the loss, which eliminated them from playoff contention.
