Carmelo Anthony announced his retirement from the NBA on Monday, officially closing the curtain on a remarkable 19-year career.
Throughout his 19 seasons in the NBA, “Melo” made 10 All-Star Games, earned six All-NBA selections and was included in the NBA’s 75th Anniversary team, a list of the game’s best 75 players ever.
The former Nuggets and Knicks star, who also spent time with the Thunder, Rockets, Trail Blazers, Lakers and even the Hawks, received a slew of congratulations in the form of various social media posts. That included plenty of current and former NBA players, who chimed in to salute the 38-year-old on his legendary career.
