Basketball fans were in disbelief after an old picture of Carmelo Anthony with the US presidential candidate Kamala Harris surfaced on social media. After Joe Biden stepped down from the US presidential elections, he named Vice President, Kamala Harris, as the front-runner and face of the Democratic Party.
New York Basketball posted a picture of Harris and Anthony on X and the post went viral. The picture of Harris and Melo together is from 2011 when Anthony was playing for the New York Knicks and Harris was the Attorney General of California.
In the picture, Anthony and Kamala are standing side by side. Melo can be seen wearing a leather jacket with a white T-shirt underneath it. While Harris is wearing a black top and a black leather jacket.

The fans flooded the comments sections after they saw the picture of the former Nuggets player alongside the 2024 Presidential candidate. They did not shy away from expressing their opinion with one fan asking if the picture was even real in the first place.
"IS THIS REAL."
Other fans joined the fray and left their thoughts about the unusual duo.
"Wtf she doing at the club , this had to be 2012 type," @mildconfused said.
"Kamala Anthony???" @modestmoose73 said.
"Not a good look Melo... stay away!!" @jfrase88 said.
While some fans were surprised to see Melo and Kamala together, others were quick to bundle them as losers.
"Neither will ever have a chip," @LegalZeagle said.
"Perfect match. Two losers," @JC22PGA said.
Kamala Harris will be going against Donald Trump in the 2024 Presidential Elections. Meanwhile, Carmelo Anthony is enjoying his life and has become a successful entrepreneur after retiring from professional basketball.
