Enes Kanter FREEDOM (@EnesFreedom)

The @WNBA says a woman is anyone who claims to be one. So if I say I’m a woman, you have to accept it. Those are the rules the #WNBA# created. Why does anyone get to decide whose journey is real and whose isn’t? Who gets to judge? Rules Are Rules! #LetFreedomPlay#

After careful consideration and reviewing the current eligibility guidelines, I’m officially declaring myself a @WNBA prospect. If simply declaring who you are is all that’s required, then I meet every single requirement necessary to compete in the WNBA. My team and I have carefully examined the WNBA’s eligibility criteria and governing framework surrounding self-identification and inclusion. Based on the current guidelines, I can and am officially declaring my eligibility for the upcoming WNBA draft in April 2027. I know my presence on the court will stir up strong opinions. I am definitely not here to mock, make fun of, or disrespect any community or personal choices. I’m simply asking that the current rules be applied equally to everyone — the rules that represent the very values many WNBA players and coaches have publicly advocated for. My team and I are prepared to ensure these guidelines are applied equally, consistently, and without exception, and I look forward to the #WNBA# honoring its stated principles. See you at training camp.

No amount of money is worth selling your principles. Accepting money from companies tied to authoritarian regimes sends the message that profit outweighs conscience. Please read my joint op-ed with @SamuelBrownback. @thehill

Turns out some of the most memorable stories were never just about magic. They were about having the courage to stand your ground when the pressure says otherwise. Supporting women. Fighting for freedom. Loving America. @EnesFreedom gets that. 🇺🇸

Today I saw @EnesFreedom in person for the first time! I actually recorded his entire speech as one of the audience members on site! Will share it later. “Keep inspiring people.” In the face of 27 years of persecution, @enesfreedom feels inspired by the nonviolent and peaceful resistance of the Falun Gong community. - July 23, 2026 at the Lincoln Memorial. #FreeFalunGong#

27 years! 27 years of persecution. 27 years of torture. 27 years of families torn apart. It has been 27 years since the Chinese Communist Party launched its brutal campaign against Falun Gong. Millions have been imprisoned, tortured, and persecuted simply because they chose to live by the values of truthfulness, compassion, and tolerance. Their stories deserve to be heard. Their courage deserves to be honored. The world must not stay silent.

Former NBA star Enes Kanter Freedom (@EnesFreedom) reveals how the league pressured him into silence and how his career was cut short because of his human rights advocacy: "Even before the first game started, (the NBA) told me that you gotta take your shoes off because we're getting so much pressure from the Chinese government. After the first game, they stopped showing every Boston Celtics game on television." @NTDNews | @CapitolReport

SELECTIVE ACTIVISM. Muhammad Ali would be ashamed. Muhammad Ali stood for courage even when it came at a personal cost. Signing a deal with a company tied to the Chinese market and becoming the face of a brand while remaining silent about the CCP’s human rights abuses doesn’t honor Ali’s legacy. It helps normalize one of the greatest human rights crises of our time.

The other day I got to pray for an NBA player. Enes kanter Freedom. As me and Enes were talking, of course we brought up the NBA and how sports are. But then he started to bring up politics and how he wanted to get more into the political space because something that happened in his life. After discussing, I got to pray for him, which was such an honor. I am so humbled. @EnesFreedom @ESmed1a

Such a great meeting this morning with @EnesFreedom, @SethDillon, @pastorzosewell, and @DrFrankTurek discussing our great nation, freedom, and the importance of standing up to the communist push we are witnessing on the left.

It was an honor to present @SpeakerJohnson with a copy of my book, “In the Name of Freedom”. Thank you for your support and for taking the time to hear my story. I look forward to continuing the fight for Freedom, human rights and the values that make America so special.
