In less than half a season, Enes Kanter has become the heart and soul of the New York Knicks. He’s embodied the characteristics that made legends such as Charles Oakley and Anthony Mason fan favorites, and Knicks fans of all ages have taken immediate notice.
As Kanter basks in the glory of being a fan favorite, it appears as though he’s made a mental commitment to never letting the feeling go.
Kanter is a double-double machine, but that’s last on the list of reasons why Knicks fans have come to adore him. His pain threshold is on Patrick Ewing levels, his mental toughness is on an Oakley plane, and his social media mastery is almost unparalleled.
