Enes Kanter To Open School Inspired By Enemy LeBron James

James and Kanter have never been the best of friends, often clashing on and off the basketball court. Their latest feud came near the start of the season when James sided against Houston Rockets’ general manager Daryl Morey in the China incident.

Kanter still has massive respect for James as a person and praised him for investing in the future. James opened the “I Promise School” in his hometown of Akron, Ohio last year.

Per The Boston Globe:

“I think that’s the most beautiful thing you can do, educating our future, investing in our future,” Kanter said.

“It was the most beautiful thing LeBron did, and it inspired me. I criticize LeBron a lot, obviously. Me and him have a beef.

But what he did was just — I was like ‘Wow, this is amazing,’”
