Summary
Thousands of threats prompted Enes Kanter Freedom to contact the FBI and arrange added security before attending Wednesday’s WNBA Finals Game 3 in Atlanta, he told OutKick.
One message warned he would be "the next Charlie Kirk," and Freedom said his direct messages were filled with images and videos tied to that shooting threat.
Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp’s office said it connected Freedom’s team with appropriate law-enforcement resources, while Freedom said FBI officers and private security would also be present; those security details were not independently confirmed.
Game 3 starts at 8 p.m. ET at State Farm Arena with the best-of-seven series tied 1-1 after Atlanta’s 79-65 Game 2 win.
The planned appearance extends Freedom’s dispute with the WNBA over sex-based eligibility rules after his August ejection from a Chicago Sky game and his push to bar transgender participation.
