NBA player Enes Kanter Freedom ripped LeBron James over his Brittney Griner remarks many took to be anti-American in a trailer for the latest episode of his HBO show “The Shop.”

Kanter said: “You call it a step back, we call this a walk back. You are free to leave buddy or you can even volunteer for an exchange for her. Some people literally have NO idea what is it like to live in a dictatorship. Keep taking your freedom for granted.

LeBron said: “She’s been there over 110 days. Now, how could she feel like America has her back? I would be feeling like, ‘Do I even want to go back to America?’”

After the backlash, James said:

“My comments on “The Shop” regarding Brittney Griner wasn’t knocking our beautiful country.

“I was simply saying how she’s probably feeling emotionally along with so many other emotions, thoughts, etc inside that cage she’s been in for over 100+ days! Long story short Free BG.”

Mike Huckabee said: “Maybe ‘Mr. China made me rich!’ Lebron ought to relocate to the country that enriches him by slave labor.  If you hate America, you don’t have to stay. LeBron James Says He’d Question Returning To America If He Were Brittney Griner.”

“The guilty plea was her decision informed by discussion with her legal defense team in Russia,” Griner’s legal team said. “Brittney sets an example of being brave. She decided to take full responsibility for her actions as she knows that she is a role model for many people.”

“Considering the nature of her case, the insignificant amount of the substance and BG’s personality and history of positive contributions to global and Russian sport, the defense hopes that the plea will be considered by the court as a mitigating factor and there will be no severe sentence,” the reps said.
