Enes Kanter, who has essentially been blackballed from his home country of Turkey due to his political views, posted an emotional Mother’s Day message for his mom earlier today.

After Kanter made a strong political statement in 2016, he was labeled a traitor by Turkey’s government officials. His family had to publicly disown him and Kanter can no longer travel internationally for fear of being arrested and deported back to Turkey.
