"Way better than Bronny": Carmelo Anthony's son Kiyan leaves NBA fans spellbound with impressive dunking display

Carmelo Anthony's son, Kiyan, has generated a lot of buzz in NBA circles. To further strengthen the excitement surrounding Kiyan, X account New York Basketball shared a highlight reel of his best dunks at Top of the Hill in Bronx, New York.

The short clip was shared on X while Instagram user @thatscheckmate uploaded it on his stories.

In response to the post, NBA fans couldn't contain their excitement.

"Wayy better than Bronny."

"Melo raising a dog, going to the rec creates that mentality," a fan posted.

X user Smooothoperator_ (@TripleOSmoooth) envisioned the upside if Kiyan fused a Kevin Durant-Carmelo Anthony playing build to the NBA.

"I hope he brings a Melo/KD type of build to the league when it's his time," the fan posted.

Moreover, X user Juwan Robinson (@melo15syr) pointed out the possibility of Kiyan Anthony being a problem for opposing defenders in the future.

"Kiyan is going to be such a problem as he grows into his man body but that jump shot is pure money," the fan posted.

Kiyan remains an exciting prospect with lots of room for improvement.

Carmelo Anthony talks about rejuvenating feeling of his son beating him in basketball matchup

On comedian Kevin Hart's "Gold Minds" podcast on Sept. 29, 2023, Carmelo Anthony shared how he felt when his son bested him during a one-on-one game.

"(33:46) I [put] Kiyan through situations and see if he can score ... but I love it," Anthony said. "I love the fact that he was able to [score on me], because if you really observe that video, he felt like, 'I made it.' And I felt that for him. For so long he would never try to, like, play serious. He'll be laughing and joking, and he'll just throw up any shot."

Anthony made a name for himself in the NBA through determination and sheer passion for his craft.

Interestingly, he now sees the same competitive drive in his son.
