Enes Kanter Freedom Files Lawsuit Against Chicago Sky, City of Chicago
Sky owner Michael Alter said Freedom “made himself into a threat.”
Enes Kanter Freedom has filed a lawsuit against the Chicago Sky, the City of Chicago, and the Metropolitan Pier and Exposition Authority, alleging that they violated his First Amendment rights by removing him from a home game and imposing an indefinite ban from attending Sky home games at Wintrust Arena. The lawsuit, filed in the Northern District of Illinois Eastern Division, states that Freedom poses no danger or immediate threat to public safety and asks for a judge to lift his ban and award him nominal compensatory damages.
The incident occurred after a verbal altercation between Freedom and Sky guard Natasha Cloud during a game between the Sky and Indiana Fever.
