Carmelo Anthonys son Kiyan could be next players offspring to be drafted into the NBA and hes pointed out the difference between him and Melos game.
The way we score is kind of similar, like shooting and getting to the basket, Kiyan said on Sloane Knows. I looked at his highlights and I looked at my highlights and itll be like some similarity there. I feel like I shoot a little better than him at this age.
He was a little bit taller and he got to the basket a little more, so I feel like I could shoot a little better shooter than him.
Before a storied NBA career, Carmelo led Syracuse to the 2003 national championship as a freshman.
Despite his Dad having such a strong connection to the college, Anthony says Melo and his Mum, La La Anthony, arent pressuring him to go there.
[My father] never pushes me to go to Syracuse just because his name is on the gym, Anthony told ESPN. He did so much at Syracuse. He knows that Im my own person. Ive just got to make my own decision at the end of the day.
If it is Syracuse I go there a lot and I practice, I work out there if it is that, thats what it is. But hes never going to say, You got to go to Syracuse. You got to go there because I went there. Hes not going to make me follow in his footsteps unless I really want to.
Kiyan will choose from his list of finalists Syracuse, Auburn, USC, Florida State, Ohio State and Rutgers over the next eight weeks and will take one more visit to the Orange before making his final decision.
