Enes Kanter’s first reaction after being ejected from WNBA game between Fever and Sky

Former NBA player Enes Kanter attended an Indiana Fever vs. Chicago Sky game on Sunday but was immediately ejected from the arena. Kanter arrived wearing a black T-shirt that contained the definition of a woman, as he declared for the 2027 WNBA Draft to ban trans athletes from the draft. His brief appearance in the arena was marred by a clash with Sky guard Natasha Cloud, leading to his swift removal.

Kanter took to social media, live-posting his WNBA game experience, mixing jokes about identifying as a woman with a confrontation with angry fans. After being kicked out, Kanter criticized Americans for supporting women, stating, "I just got kicked out of a WNBA game for supporting WOMEN! Let that sink in, AMERICA!" The incident sparked divided public opinion, with many WNBA fans feeling embarrassed and some angry at the league for removing a paying patron who did not actively disrupt the game.

While Kanter was escorted off the premises by security, arguing with them as they did so, the main story of the game was the impressive performance of Caitlin Clark and Kelsey Mitchell, who combined for 67 points. Instead of focusing on this, the conversation centered around Kanter's actions, continuing his pursuit of getting drafted into the WNBA.
