NBA forward Kyle Kuzma, who previously shared the court with Israeli star Deni Avdija on the Washington Wizards, addressed pro-‘Palestinian’ demonstrations in Mexico City on Tuesday via social media platform X, urging protesters to broaden their calls for “free ‘Palestine'” to encompass liberation from Hamas and Iranian-backed terror organizations.

Kuzma reshared a video clip capturing a rally in the Mexican capital where crowds chanted “Palestine will be free,” accompanying the footage with a pointed statement: “If you believe ‘Palestinians’ deserve freedom, say it clearly. Freedom from Hamas too. Freedom from Iranian-backed terror. Freedom from leaders who use civilians as shields.”
Continuing his remarks, Kuzma noted that “compassion cannot be selective,” directly challenging pro-‘Palestinian’ activists who direct exclusive scrutiny toward Israel while completely ignoring the culpability of Hamas and regional terror factions for the suffering of ‘Palestinian’ civilians.
Kuzma played three seasons alongside Dani Avdija in Washington, where the two logged substantial minutes as key teammates. Now, reacting directly to footage of anti-Israel street demonstrations abroad, the basketball star chose to deliver a clear-eyed counter-message: any genuine call for ‘Palestinian’ human rights must demand an end to Hamas rule and the malign grip of the Iranian terror axis.
