Enes Kanter took a hard fall during New York Knicks game with the Atlanta Hawks Wednesday night. He didn’t get hurt physically, but was upset with the opponent’s social media reaction. The Hawks poked fun at Kanter using some WWE references from Jim Ross comments to the Undertaker’s theme music to describe the scary moment.
The 26-year-old center talked to ESPN’s Ian Bagley about the tweet: “I know they’ve been tweeting some crazy stuff. Probably a high schooler. Whoever it is, they should consider anyone (else) for sure because it is terrible. It’s kind of weird because they just lost the game. Their social media guy is probably a high schooler, I don’t know.”
He was flipped by Miles Plumlee and took a hard fall, but after the match he added: “I’m fine. I watch a lot of wrestling so I know how to duck and I know to save my neck.”
