Anthony also played in the 2025 Nike Hoop Summit. The game marked Team USA's fifth consecutive victory in the prestigious game. It was a tough competition, in which Team USA defeated Team World by a 124-114 scoreline in overtime.

Anthony was joined by some other top prospects, including Baylor Bears' Tounde Yessoufou, UConn signee Eric Reibe and Tajh Ariza, son of 2009 NBA champion Trevor Ariza.

Through his Puerto Rican ties on his mother's side, Anthony played for Team World.

Anthony, who came off the bench, played nine minutes and had one point, one rebound and two assists.
