Top 10 things Enes Kanter forgot to pack when he left Utah
This is totally not a serious article, it's satirical in nature.Tonight will be the second time that Enes Kanter, the former #3 draft pick of the Utah Jazz, faces his old club in the gym he once considered his home court. The Oklahoma City Thunder center is, well, an erstwhile generational talent who is not exactly setting the league on fire right now. Now, I don't bear the young man any specific ill will beyond that of any visiting player. However, I don't think all Jazz fans will extend the same courtesy tonight. Last season he faced the Jazz in Utah back in March. He played 34 minutes, and a pretty good night. The "Kanterman" finished with 18 points, 11 rebounds, 2 blocks, and 1 assist . . . but left with a loss. I don't really remember him being that effective but the box score doesn't tell a lie here. But it speaks volumes that he had a big game and almost none of us remember it. I can assume that tonight he will want to have a more memorable game against the team he was traded from.
