In the world of father-son basketball players, there's more than just LeBron and Bronny James, as Kiyan Anthony is also making a mark. During the NBA Top 100 Camp, NBA legend Carmelo Anthony's son has stepped up and showcased his abilities.

On Wednesday morning during the Top 100 Camp, Kiyan Anthony scored 34 points on an electric 12-of-19 shooting. Here's the video of the son of future Hall of Famer Carmelo Anthony.

Anthony is part of the Class of 2025 as he enters his senior year in high school. He hasn't yet committed to a collegiate program or made a decision about his post-high school career.


Where would it make the most sense for Kiyan Anthony to play college basketball?

While Anthony is an outstanding prospect, it's pretty clear that he's not going to be heading straight to the NBA. However, there are some potential schools that make sense for him to at least consider.

One of them would be the Syracuse Orange, as his father has deep ties to the university after winning the national championship with the school while he was in college.

Even though legendary coach Jim Boeheim retired, the connection with the University of Syracuse certainly makes sense. Anthony already had an official visit to the school, so it will be interesting to see if he considers them when the decision comes.

Another school that would make sense for Kiyan Anthony would be the Ohio State Buckeyes. Coach Jake Diebler is ready for his first season as the Buckeyes coach.

If he can create a solid culture in his first season and make a splash with Anthony in Year 2, that would be a massive boost for the program. The Big Ten Conference is going to give Anthony a light to shine bright, and with the prestige of Ohio State University, it could be a massive boost for his NIL as well.

There are some other schools who have at least sent an offer to Kiyan Anthony, but he has made two official visits so far: Syracuse and Florida State. Hence, it will be intriguing to see where he winds up calling home for at least one season of college basketball.
