Carmelo Anthony’s career could be summed up thusly: He was a bucket. How will he be remembered in NBA echelons? More, with davidaldridgedc, NickKosmider and joevardon ⤵️
The organization’s first four-time Olympian and three-time gold medalist, Anthony is the American Olympic leader in games and rebounds , and is second in a number of categories behind, including total points . He was perhaps the third most important member of the Redeem Team, behind James and Kobe Bryant, and was USAB’s second-leading scorer at the 2016 Games.
This summer, Anthony is serving as one of three global ambassadors for the 2023 FIBA World Cup — a nod to his storied presence in international basketball. —Before being selected by the Nuggets in 2003, Anthony led Syracuse to its first ever NCAA Tournament title. During his lone season with the Orange, he averaged 22.2 points and 10 rebounds per game.
Anthony is the only player in NBA history to score 50 points without a single point in the paint. He is one of two players in NBA history to score 62 or more points without a single assist, the other being Bryant.“I remember the days when I had nothing. Just a ball on the court and a dream of something more. But basketball was my outlet. My purpose was strong, my communities, the cities I represented with pride and the fans that supported me along the way.
“But now the time has come for me to say goodbye. To the court where I made my name, to the game that gave me purpose and pride. With this bittersweet goodbye to the NBA, I am excited about what the future holds for me. When people ask what I believe my legacy is, it’s not my feats on the court that come to mind, nor the awards or praise, because my story has always been more than basketball. My legacy, my son, it’s in you.
