Enes Kanter had a solid game in helping the Trail Blazers to a 97-90 win over the Nuggets in Game 2 of their Western Conference semifinal on Wednesday night. Not that you would know it if you live in Turkey.
Kanter, a former Knick, reignited his fight with Turkish president Recep Tayyip Erdoğan after discovering his 15-point, nine-rebound night was deleted by the NBA Turkey website. He posted a screen grab of his stats deletion with the tweet (right).
“What a messed up country lead by #TurkishDictator @RTErdogan,” Kanter tweeted. “Only Turkish player out here tonight, and the official @NBA for Turkey @NBAturkiye is censoring me. They dont show blazers games in Turkey. The government controls people,this a problem. How can official NBA allow this(?)”
While a member of the Knicks, Kanter did not attend the team’s 101-100 loss to the Wizards in London on Jan. 17 because he feared Erdogan would have had spies in the city who would try to kill him.
