BRIGHTON, MA — Celtics Center Enes Kanter Freedom spoke to the media on Tuesday about recently becoming a US Citizen and changing his last name to Freedom. Kanter now known as Enes Freedom has long been a vocal advocate for social justice.

Kanter reacted to becoming a US citizen on Monday.

“I’ve been waiting for this day since I stepped in America.” He told a story about how when he first came into the league: “One of my teammates was criticizing the president .. I was like what’re you doing they’re going to throw you into jail … he was like don’t worry, this isn’t Turkey.”

Kanter on the response to his China protest.

“I think obviously, people know me, I try to stand up for the things I believe in … freedom and democracy no matter who it’s for or against. Says a parent at one of his camps called him out for not speaking up for Muslims in China.”

“I had a conversation with Adam Silver, I told Adam, am I breaking any rules? He said no … you’re not violating any rules.

Silver told Kanter “you have a freedom to say whatever you want,”.
