One member of the media asked Steven Adams: “What’s the worst thing about Enes Kanter?” From the back of the room, you could hear Enes commenting “Wow”. These two spent a lot of time together this summer.
The stache brothers popped up on people’s Twitter feeds as Enes Kanter posted a variety of pictures and videos of what looked like the best summer ever.
While these two are close, they couldn’t be more different. Steven Adams being a fun-loving guy from New Zealand doesn’t have the homeland issues that Kanter has.
In fact, the first question asked to Kanter when he stepped to the podium was about his family disowning him. Enes laughed and declined to address the issue saying that it would take too much time and that in future a conversation can be had.
Regardless of their own personal dwellings, these two are fun to be around and they thrive on the media flocking to them because of their personalities.
