Natasha Cloud dismisses Enes Kanter Freedom as Sky ban him from home games
NEW YORK (AP) — Natasha Cloud didn’t want to waste time and energy talking about Enes Kanter Freedom on Saturday as she prepared for the Chicago Sky’s game…
During the Chicago Sky's game against the New York Liberty on August 23, 2026, Natasha Cloud, a guard for the Sky, had a verbal altercation with former NBA center Enes Kanter Freedom. The incident occurred during the second half of the game at the Chicago home court. Cloud expressed her disinterest in discussing Freedom, stating that he is "an irrelevant person" and that she will focus on issues affecting women and children in 2026, such as domestic violence, sexual assault, and food insecurities.
The confrontation began when Cloud, with her team leading, initiated a chest bump with teammate Aicha Coulibaly, then walked towards Freedom. She began yelling and pointing at him as he stood up and confronted her, eventually being separated by security and Sky players. In response to the incident, the Chicago Sky have banned Freedom from attending any future home games.
