Former NBA star Enes Kanter Freedom<\/a> was kicked out of Wednesday night’s WNBA Finals game while trying to access the seats he paid for.<\/p>\n It all started when Enes received a call, seemingly from a league security officer …. who told him the WNBA’s Chief Security Officer had previously tried to reach out to him about his seats.<\/p>\n The officer told him that, for the security and safety of the players, fans, and himself … arena security had arranged a private luxury suite for Enes instead of his purchased seats for Game 3 of the Finals between the Atlanta Dream and Golden State Valkyries.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Play video content<\/p>\n Enes told him … “I don’t want a suite. I would like to sit on the seats that I bought and purchased. I do not want a suite. I’m going to come and sit on the seats that I just bought.”<\/p>\n After being told the only thing available for him was a suite … Enes said he’d show up anyway and head down to the seats he purchased.<\/p>\n Flash-forward to Wednesday night’s pre-game … Enes shared a clip of security informing him at the entrance to State Farm Arena that if he wanted to attend the game … he’d have to stay in the suite.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n After rejecting the offer and demanding access to the seats he purchased … he was escorted out of State Farm Arena by police.<\/p>\n Captioning the video of his exit, Enes wrote … “I just got kicked out of a @wnba game for the second time in a row for supporting WOMEN!”<\/p>\n Meanwhile … a State Farm Arena rep told The Guardian<\/a> that Enes “was offered the suite for his safety and he rejected it.”<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n As you know … Enes has claimed<\/a> he’s eligible to play in the WNBA because he self-identifies as someone who is eligible. He’s also been banned<\/a> from Chicago’s Wintrust Arena after a previous ejection … a ban he’s tried to lift<\/a> through a lawsuit.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Enes Kanter Freedom Booted From WNBA Finals Game Published October 22, 2026 6:34 AM PDT Play video content…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":942240,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[629],"tags":[49,48,44,82,865,866,630],"class_list":["post-942239","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-wnba","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-news","tag-sports","tag-sports-news","tag-tmz-sports","tag-wnba"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/942239","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=942239"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/942239\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/942240"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=942239"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=942239"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=942239"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}![\"102226](\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/18a7818a4d2848f8b5acb6e414f77db1_md.png\")
