He tweeted a week or so ago that he was gonna miss this due to his surgery. Now, he's fine. Which is it?

The kid likes to be a sideshow of sorts and it's sad.

I don't see a tweet from him stating this. I see tweets from other media members reporting on information from sources in Europe. Mr. Kanter did tweet that his surgery was a success on the 25th. Since this is a medical situation, maybe the prognosis changed. I mean, these things aren't static. The games themselves are almost 2 months away and what I've read is that Mr. Kanter would only be sidelined for 2 weeks.

I was watching CNNTurk and they listed the roster of the NT which included a certain Mr. Kanter of Utah Jazz.
I was suprised and did think he was not to be invited.

Wow Ergin Ataman is the coach now? He is a great guy, should have great relations with Enes.
By the way Ataman also coached Deron Williams with great success. Deron once scored 50 points for him :)
 
Source please. Thank you.

You know in Muslim-dominated countries they don't make and publish such scientific stuff but I remember many examples of this. Lastly Mousa Sow, a key soccer player for the top Turkish team Fenerbahce decided to fast for one month last year then he found himself on the bench for several weeks, slowly got up to the pace of his teammates. He was 100% only two months later or something.

Just popped a search query into the googles to see if there was any sort of recent information.

Found this:

Interesting stuff.

Yeah, I think I misremembered or misread the info on Kanter.
 
It would be great to watch Enes and Dante and Rudy in this world cup.

Patrick Mills is gone for 6 months. Is it official that Dante's invited to play in world championship?

Players like Hedo, Memo, Semih, Ersan don't fast but I'm almost sure Enes does. Look at his tweets guys. All Islam everything. From Playboy models to a devoted Muslim Enes Kanter...

I don't know how the Turkish National team works, but if it works like here in Brazil, the fact that he was called to play by the Turkish NT coach doesn't necessarily mean he will play.

Every tournament the Brazilian coach calls all the Brazilian players in the NBA and every once in a while someone that is on his list asks to not come.

Nenê did it so many times that Brazilians don't like him too much.
