Celtics Coach Ime Udoka Says Team Hasn’t Talked To Enes Kanter About China Comments

 

We’ve frequently talked about how Boston Celtics center Enes Kanter never shies away from voicing his opinion, or from fighting for what’s right.

This is exactly what he did again when harshly criticizing the wrong doings of China.

Expectedly, and similar to the Houston Rockets situation a while back, this has led to China blocking all Boston Celtics games for now. Since it obviously is an important market for the NBA and the Celtics, one might have expected the Celtics to intervene somehow. 

But thankfully, it appears that the franchise stands with freedom of speech being a fundamental right, at least when it comes up to head coach Ime Udoka.

 

“We know it’s out there. He is very passionate about a lot of things and he has the freedom to say what he wants. That’s above my department.”
