NBA legend and future Basketball Hall of Famer Carmelo Anthony enjoyed an amazing basketball career. The ten-time All-Star and six-time All-NBA selection who was a scoring threat from all three levels on the floor finished his NBA career with 28,289 points. Anthony played 20 NBA seasons before retiring in May of this year.
But, prior to his illustrious NBA career, Anthony embarked on a one-year college journey to Syracuse. There, Melo was the key piece in a national title run that netted former legendary Orangemen head coach Jim Boeheim his lone national championship.

Now, Melo’s legacy, son Kiyan, a 2025 four-star recruit who’s the No. 41-ranked recruit in the class and one of the top shooting guards in the class is taking his official visit to dad’s alma mater. Kiyan, the 6-foot-4 junior guard who plays for Long Island Lutheran High School, has blossomed into a really solid player that has schools chomping at the bit to add his services, but many believe “The Cuse” are the leaders in the clubhouse.
