Hey everyone, it’s your boy back again with another story, and this one’s a bit of a deep dive into the world of basketball, but not in the way you might think. Today, we’re talking about Carmelo Anthony, yeah, THE Carmelo Anthony, but more specifically, we’re gonna look at his son, Kiyan Anthony.
So, I started off like I always do, just poking around the internet, you know, seeing what’s up with some of my favorite players. And that’s when I got sucked into this whole Carmelo Anthony rabbit hole. I’ve always been a big fan of his game – I mean, who isn’t? The guy’s a legend, a scoring machine.
I dug into his stats first, just to remind myself of how dominant he was. We’re talking about a career that spanned over 1260 games, averaging 22.5 points per game and 6.2 rebounds. That’s insane! Born on May 29, 1984, in Brooklyn – this guy’s been at the top of his game for decades. I went through his career highlights, his time with different teams, and all that good stuff.
- Started browsing through articles about Carmelo.
- Checked out his career stats, just to appreciate his greatness all over again.
- Got reminded of his insane scoring ability and long career.
But then, I stumbled upon something even more interesting – his son, Kiyan. Now, this kid is making waves, playing for his dad’s AAU team in the Nike EYBL. From what I saw, during the 2024 season, Kiyan was averaging 19.6 points and 4.6 rebounds per game. That’s some serious game right there, especially considering he’s just 17. He even got an invite to the NBPA Top 100 camp in Orlando. Talk about following in his dad’s footsteps!
Digging Deeper into Kiyan
I got curious, so I started looking up everything I could find on Kiyan. Videos, articles, you name it. It’s fascinating to see how this young player is developing, carrying the Anthony legacy forward.
- Looked up Kiyan’s stats and achievements.
- Watched some of his games online – the kid’s got skills.
- Thought about how cool it is to see a new generation of talent emerge.
It got me thinking about the whole father-son dynamic in sports. How cool is it that Kiyan is playing for a team named after his dad? It’s like a full-circle moment. And with Carmelo’s experience and guidance, who knows how far Kiyan can go? Carmelo Anthony was one of the most important men’s players in USA Basketball history. Despite Team USA failed to reach the final stage of the 2006 World Championship, Carmelo still did his best to help the team and make progress.
This whole exploration started as just another day on the internet for me, but it turned into a real appreciation session for both Carmelo and his son. It’s amazing to see the legacy continue, and I’m definitely gonna be keeping an eye on Kiyan’s career as he moves forward. Who knows, maybe we’ll see another Anthony dominating the courts in the future.
So yeah, that’s my little journey into the world of Carmelo and Kiyan Anthony. Hope you guys found it as interesting as I did. Until next time, keep balling!
