Dream, NBA Move Kanter to WNBA Finals Suite Over ‘Safety’ Concerns
Kanter and the team were feuding over his Game 3 seat.
On Game 3 of the WNBA Finals, the Dream and State Farm Arena have provided Enes Kanter Freedom with a private suite, citing his "expressed concern about his personal safety." Following consultations with various authorities and security officials, the event organizers directed Mr. Freedom to watch the game from a private luxury suite, equipped with additional security personnel.
The statement explained that this arrangement was meant to address his security concerns and ensure a safe and enjoyable experience for him and other attendees. Freedom made the decision to attend despite a previous incident where he was thrown out of a Sky-Fever game in Chicago for a verbal altercation with a player. The WNBA and the Dream had not initially planned to ban Freedom, allowing him to attend the game.
