Enes Kanter was once again part of a lot of headlines, following the first ejection of LeBron James' career on Tuesday night, as he took it as an opportunity to troll the Cavaliers star forward on social media. It can be recalled that he posted a tweet where he called Kent Fitzgerald the King of Cleveland, and poking fun at the former four-time MVP using his hashtag he's been famous for.

That prompted James to fire back at the New York Knicks big man, saying during an interview that he is just out there to seek attention and will do everything to get some to himself. Kanter then took to his Twitter account again to send out a message to all his haters, with yet another subtle shot at The King, by mocking an Instagram post he made earlier this month, using an Arthur-themed GIF as well.

The fiery exchange between the two stemmed from the statement James made a couple of weeks ago, where he claimed that the Knicks would've been better if they drafted Dennis Smith Jr. instead. He then received a strong message from Kanter ahead of their matchup, letting him know that they are happy having Frank Ntilikina. Emotions were high and carried on during the game, and it didn't take long for both players to figure in a heated moment.

The Knicks and Cavs are still scheduled to meet twice this regular season, and it will be very interesting to see Kanter and James compete next time. Their exchanges will surely add more fuel to the fire and will make their games a must watch for all basketball fans, as it can be expected to both be hotly contested.
