Trail Blazers' Enes Kanter, NBPA Respond to 'Go Back to Turkey' Comment From Nuggets Fan

During Game 2 of the Trail Blazers' second-round series against the Nuggets, a Denver fan told Enes Kanter, "Go back to Turkey, oh wait, you can't," according to ESPN.com's Royce Young.

Kanter called the comment "hurtful" when he responded on Twitter Thursday and added, "Be grateful for the Democracy and Freedom we have here."

I wish I could go back to Turkey to see Family ud83dude14
But I chose to support Democracy, Freedom and Human rights,
I am grateful for most Americans supporting that right. @nuggets take control of your fans.
