Carmelo Anthony Retires After Legendary NBA Career

Carmelo Anthony Announces Retirement from Professional Basketball

June 3, 2023

After a legendary 19-year career in the NBA, 10-time All-Star and Olympic gold medalist Carmelo Anthony has officially announced his retirement from professional basketball. The 38-year-old forward, known for his elite scoring ability and clutch performances, leaves the game as one of the most prolific scorers in league history.

Anthony made the announcement via a heartfelt video posted on social media, reflecting on his journey from Baltimore to Syracuse, and ultimately to the NBA.

'Now the time has come for me to say goodbye to the court where I made my name and to the game that gave me purpose and pride,' Anthony said. 'Thank you to the fans, my teammates, and everyone who supported me along the way.'

A Storied Career

Drafted third overall by the Denver Nuggets in 2003, Anthony quickly established himself as one of the league’s premier scorers. He led the Nuggets to the 2009 Western Conference Finals and later became a franchise icon for the New York Knicks, where he won the 2013 scoring title.

Over his career, Anthony also played for the Oklahoma City Thunder, Houston Rockets, Portland Trail Blazers, and Los Angeles Lakers. He finishes his NBA career ranked 9th on the all-time scoring list with over 28,000 points.

Internationally, Anthony was a key figure for Team USA, winning three Olympic gold medals (2008, 2012, 2016) and becoming the program’s all-time leading scorer and rebounder.

Legacy and What’s Next

While his chase for an NBA championship fell short, Anthony’s impact on the game is undeniable. His mid-range mastery, post play, and ability to take over games in crunch time made him one of the most feared offensive players of his era.

Fellow NBA stars, including LeBron James and Dwyane Wade, paid tribute to Anthony, calling him a 'true hooper' and a 'first-ballot Hall of Famer.'

As for what’s next, Anthony hinted at staying involved in basketball, possibly in ownership or mentorship roles. 'This isn’t the end of my basketball journey,' he said. 'It’s just the beginning of something new.'

Carmelo Anthony’s retirement marks the end of an era for one of the greatest scorers the game has ever seen. His legacy will live on as future generations look to his footwork, scoring prowess, and relentless competitiveness.
