Enes Kanter discusses WNBA transgender athlete eligibility on Piers Morgan Uncensored

Former NBA player Enes Kanter appeared on Piers Morgan Uncensored to voice criticism regarding current WNBA policies on transgender athletes. Kanter claimed that male players in the G League could face financial incentives to transition and join the WNBA to access higher salaries. He referenced previous conversations with Indiana Fever player Sophie Cunningham, asserting that the issue is a matter of common sense rather than political alignment. Kanter previously announced an intention to declare for the 2027 WNBA draft as part of his protest against league rules. At the time of this report, the WNBA has not modified its eligibility requirements or responded to his proposal for a moderated discussion on the topic. The league continues to operate under its existing guidelines while facing ongoing public debate.
