As an outspoken critic of Turkish president Recep Tayyip Erdogan, Oklahoma City Thunder big man Enes Kanter took quite a risk by traveling to Romania to express his views.
Now he is being detained in the airport by police and posted this video to social media as a protest for the dictatorial actions in his homeland.
Kanter is a guy with real character and substance, which the NBA seems to be full of these days.
His actions to help his home country are certainly admirable, and he took a chance by using his public fame to take a stand.
Hopefully his opinions and criticism inspire some real change in an area of the world that obviously needs it.
