Carmelo Anthony's son Kiyan Anthony reveals one fashion item he cannot live without "being from New York"

Syracuse signee Kiyan Anthony, son of NBA legend Carmelo Anthony, often flaunts his fashion sense on social outings and social media. In a "SportsCenter NEXT" Instagram video on Friday, he showcased his New Yorker style when asked to name one fashion item he can't live without.

"Timbs (Timberland boots). Being from New York, Timbs is like a staple. Definitely gotta rock some Timbs," Anthony answered.

The next question for Kiyan was even more intriguing:

"Which NBA player would you want to swap closets with?"

"I'll pick Shai," Kiyan replied. "I feel like he got more of modern streetwear. He wears a lot of clothes that I'd wear. And I feel a lot of people think that his drip is plain elite."

Kiyan Anthony also revealed that his go-to pair of sneakers is Jordans. He backed his answer by citing that there are a lot of color options and that they go with any kind of fit. The LuHi shooting guard was asked to pick between vintage NBA jerseys and new-era designs, and he was absolutely clear with his choice.

"I like the vintage, for sure," Kiyan said. "The colors were better. Back in the day, people wanted to buy jerseys because they look fire. So, definitely vintage."

In another video by "SportsCenter NEXT," Anthony shared his fashion hot take.

"Don't overdo," he said. "Don't try to overdo it, because sometimes when you try to overdo it, it could look bad. So, just sometimes, keep it simple."
