Possibly; I also suspect that he is getting paid by someone to troll women’s basketball.
As discussed in this Game Room thread last month, a guy named Clay Travis, who is a conservative talk-radio host and has been involved in various sports media projects, announced that he wanted to found an all-transgender WNBA team, and already had two former NBA players who were now “identifying as female” who were interested; Kanter is one of those two.
It would not surprise me if Travis, or someone similar, is bankrolling Kanter, and handing his legal fees.
