Enes Kanter Freedom takes aim at LeBron James, questioning his activism and revealing what a former teammate allegedly said about the NBA superstar.

LeBron James is already facing criticism over his national anthem controversy, but now another former NBA player is adding fuel to the fire.

Former NBA center Enes Kanter Freedom appeared on OutKick, where he criticized James and questioned the sincerity of his political activism.

And some of his allegations are raising eyebrows.

During the interview, Freedom claimed he once spoke with Dennis Schröder, who previously played alongside James, about LeBron’s activism.

According to Freedom, Schröder told him, “Whatever LeBron is doing is for LeBron.”

That’s a pretty significant allegation about someone who has spent years positioning himself as one of the NBA’s most outspoken voices on social issues. However, Schröder’s alleged comments are Freedom’s account and have not been independently confirmed.

Freedom also discussed his own experience speaking publicly about politics while playing in the NBA.

He claimed that after appearing on Fox News, his Boston Celtics teammates gave him the cold shoulder at practice the following day. According to Freedom, there was an unwritten expectation within NBA circles to avoid the network.

But perhaps his most controversial statement was directed at LeBron himself.

Freedom referred to James as the “dictator of the NBA,” suggesting that the superstar holds enormous influence over the league and its culture.

These comments come as James faces backlash over footage showing him making golf-swing-like motions during the national anthem. President Donald Trump has also publicly criticized James over the incident.

While Freedom has been an outspoken critic of LeBron for years, his latest remarks have reopened questions about the relationship between politics, activism, and professional basketball.

James has not publicly addressed these specific allegations in the material provided.

Is Freedom exposing a side of LeBron that fans rarely see, or is this simply another chapter in their long-running feud?
