On WNBA rookie Angel Reese's podcast on November 1, Carmelo Anthony's son Kiyan Anthony revealed the aspect of his dad's game that he wishes to learn. Anthony also opened up about his family, childhood, LeBron James's aura, and his college decision.
While talking about his parents, Reese asked Anthony Jr. to describe his father's game in three words. Kiyan tagged his dad as "a killer", "a bully", and "a leader" on the court as Carmelo moves on the pitch, dunks the ball in the basket, and brings the best out of his teammates.
Angel went on to ask Kiyan about something from Carmelo's game that he would like to implement in his own:
"I would take his mentality like like even when he misses shots or even when the game is not going his way, he's still going to find a way to get to it...He next level," Kiyan said. (15:32)
The NBA legend's son added that he has got a good mentality and aims to kill out there on the court. Kiyan Anthony also revealed that people try to get the best out of him by claiming he plays better than his father.
