Anxious Carmelo Anthony Utters 6-Word Mantra Over Son Kiyan’s Uncertain College Future

With Carmelo Anthony hanging up his jersey earlier this year, it is now up to his son, Kiyan Anthony, to continue his legacy. Even before the teenager graduates from high school, he has already received offers from numerous universities. Since then, both Carmelo and Kiyan have gone on to visit Florida State University and Syracuse University, which currently seem like the frontrunners to land Anthony Jr.

Although, Kiyan Anthony has received an offer from Carmelo’s alma mater, the New York Knicks legend recently revealed that his son has yet to decide on which university he would play for. Hoping for his son to make the right choice, Melo tried to enchant good fortune for his son with a handful of words.

Carmelo Anthony is manifesting the best for his son

Over the past few months, Carmelo Anthony and his son have been visiting some universities from which Kiyan has already gotten offers. While there were many, the main standouts were Florida State University and Syracuse University. Both Carmelo and his son took pictures in the respective jerseys of both teams, but although it has been two months since then, Kiyan Anthony has still not decided where he will take his talents.

During a recent episode of Late Night with Seth Meyers, Carmelo Anthony and The Kid Mero made an appearance to promote their new podcast. During their conversation, Meyers asked Carmelo about his son, who is still playing in high school, and if he had decided on which university he was going to commit to.

After saying that Kiyan has not decided anything as of now, the 10x All-Star said, “He will make his own choice.” And he went on to say that four more times, hoping that the teenager would make the right choice.

Following his time at Syracuse University and the legacy that he has left there, Carmelo Anthony might be inclined towards his son joining his alma mater. But only time will tell, as Kiyan is still 16 years old and will only graduate from high school in 2025.

Carmelo’s Syracuse legacy

Back in 2003, Melo led the Orange to a national championship in his one year at Syracuse University. The 35 games that he played for them have etched Carmelo Anthony’s place in NCAA history.

Anthony received the award for the Final Four Most Outstanding Player along with the national Freshman of the Year award.

As his son is now approaching his collegiate career, Anthony wants nothing but the best for his son and hopes that Kiyan will make the right decision and find equal success wherever he takes his talents.
