Enes Kanter says he has a wrestling offer on the table.
Kanter (Enes Freedom) is currently a basketball free agent after he was traded to, and then waived by, the Houston Rockets at the NBA trade deadline. Kanter is a forer WWE 24/7 Champion who has made no secret of his desire to pursue wrestling at some point.
Speaking on Let's Hang during the SEC Championship game, Kanter revealed he has an offer on the table to wrestle.
"I already have an offer, I'm just trying to figure out what is going to happen with this basketball thing. I'm 29, and I want to play another six or seven years in this league. I'm going to figure out my basketball career first and see what's going to happen. I already have an offer, I'm just not taking it right now. I love basketball and I'm not going to quit basketball," he said.
This isn't the first time Kanter has said he's had wrestling offers. In 2020, he said he's had offers to become a pro wrestler. You can find his full comments by clicking here.
