Teams pay tribute to Carmelo Anthony - ESPN

Carmelo Anthony announced his retirement from the NBA on Monday after 19 years in the league. After a career with the Denver Nuggets, New York Knicks, Oklahoma City Thunder, Houston Rockets, Portland Trail Blazers and Los Angeles Lakers, the 10-time NBA All-Star will go down as one of the best scorers of his era.

At Syracuse, Melo helped deliver the school's only college basketball national title and was the Most Outstanding Player in the 2003 NCAA tournament. In the NBA, he won the 2013 scoring title and was part of the NBA's 75th anniversary team. While he never won a championship in the NBA, Anthony is arguably the greatest player in Team USA men's Olympic basketball history. He won four Olympic medals, three golds, and owns the United States' single-game Olympic scoring record (37). According to ESPN Stats & Information, Anthony and Kevin Durant are the only national team players with multiple 30-point games.

After the announcement, the NBA and some of Anthony's former teams saluted him on his career.

10x NBA All-Star, 6x All-NBA selection, 9th most points all-time and 75th Anniversary Team member... Thank you, Carmelo!
