After recently announcing his retirement from his 20-year-long NBA career, Carmelo Anthony can say that he gave it his best shot. He can step back proudly as the 9th on the ?All-time Scorer?s List?. Another thing that he is most proud of is his influence on his 16-year-old son?s life. Melo has definitely impacted his son?s life, as Kiyan has grown up as an ardent basketball player as well, and is going viral on social media because of his illustrious high school basketball career so far.

In a recent social media post, Kiyan Anthony reacts to Gilbert Arenas and other basketball fans’ comments on the 16-year-old’s recent ?wild? on-court moments.

Gilbert Arenas and More Reacts to Kiyan Anthony?s ?Wild? Talk

In a recent Instagram post of ?Overtime?, Kiyan Anthony reviews the reactions he got when he was dishing out some ?wild? advice/talk to one of his teammates and to the opposition as well.

The 16-year-old first talks about the opponent team?s choice to put a certain defender on him. Kiyan then nonchalantly says, ?He?s the best one to do the job, if you put anyone else on me, it would?ve been an easy 30.? Probably one of the most savage but honest trash-talk of the game.

In another instance, he was seen hyping up a teammate who had scored 12 points. Having scored 24 points himself in that game, it just seemed hilarious how Kiyan Anthony told his teammate, ?You got like 12 (points). That?s good! You got like 12!?
