Enes Kanter already knows what he wants to do once his NBA career is over.
The Boston Celtics center spoke with The Athletic’s Shams Charania about his life after basketball — and he apparently already has an offer on the table.
“Oh, I’m definitely becoming a WWE wrestler, for sure,” Kanter told Charania. “I actually already have this offer from WWE, but I’m like, ‘Hey, I gotta finish my basketball career first.’ But after my basketball career, I’m definitely becoming one.”

Kanter previously expressed interest in joining the WWE in November on his podcast. He also won (and quickly lost) the WWE 24/7 title at TD Garden in September, so he does have some experience in the ring — albeit minimal.
