NBA and Syracuse men's basketball star Carmelo Anthony was in upstate New York on Sunday to deliver the commencement address for the newest group of his fellow Orangemen, during which he also took a moment to acknowledge how happy and proud he is to see his son, Kiyan, joining his alma mater.
Kiyan Anthony, 17, committed to SU's basketball progam in November 2024. He is a four-star recruit, per 247Sports. His father played with the Orange for just one season before declaring for the NBA draft, but he led the team to its first and only national title.
