CARMELO ANTHONY BIO

Mc. Donald All-American team
Baltimore player of the year
All-Metro player of the year
Anthony was born in Brooklyn, New York, the youngest of four children. He was two when his father, Carmelo Iriarte, died, and four years later moved with his mother, Mary Anthony, to Baltimore. The future star grew up in a hardscrabble neighborhood west of downtown. "Drugs, guns, all that," Anthony said.
Over the course of his pro career, the 6'8" forward has proven to be one of the game's great scorers. In 2007 he was tapped to play in his first All-Star game, and in the ensuing years has made several additional All-Star teams. On December 10, 2008, in a game against Minnesota, Anthony tied an NBA record when he scored 33 points in a single quarter.
Carmelo Kyam Anthony is an American professional basketball player for the New York Knicks of the National Basketball Association. Anthony attended Towson Catholic High School and Oak Hill Academy before playing college basketball at Syracuse
