Enes Kanter might have started something he can't handle.
On Wednesday, Kanter joined the set of The Herd where he shared his opinion on Zion Williamson with Colin Cowherd.
"I kind of feel like he’s overhyped," Kanter said. "I kind of feel like he’s Julius Randle with hops."
Understandably, this rubbed a lot of people the wrong way. Although the comment was aimed at Zion Williamson, many people took it as unnecessary shade thrown at Randle. In review, last season was Randle's break out season. His points jumped from 15 for his career to 21 points a game. As for Kanter, he averaged just 14 points a game. As a result, Randle took it upon himself to remind Kanter of this.
"Yo [Enes Kanter]," Randle tweeted. "Last time you guarded me I had 45 relax bro."
To add to this, it should be noted that the Knicks are reportedly interested in adding Julius Randle to complement the top free agent(s) they hope to land. This is relevant because the Knicks were actively trying to trade Kanter but were unable to find a suitable offer. Yet, that didn't stop New York from waiving the forward less than three hours after the deadline closed. This comes after they reportedly refused to play him.
