Denver Nuggets and Team USA basketball legend Carmelo Anthony saw his name circulating the news a lot on Thursday, as Golden State Warriors star Steph Curry came within one-point of his historic 37-point game against Nigeria in 2012. With 36 points in Thursday’s semifinals win over Serbia, Curry turned in the second-highest scoring game at the Olympics in Team USA history.
Anthony was court-side for this game, as he also got to see his close friend LeBron James record his second Olympic triple-double, becoming the first player to do so. In an Instagram story post after the game, James revealed Anthony’s message to him.
“You said ‘Gotta get it done the hard way.’ I heard you loud and clear my brother,” James wrote.
Anthony was traded to the New York Knicks in 2011 after spending eight seasons with the Nuggets. A four-time Olympian with USA Basketball (2004, 2008, 2012, 2016), Anthony spent his first two Olympic runs while a member of the Nuggets, finishing his historic USA Basketball career as a member of the Knicks.
