    Carmelo Anthony has retired from the NBA, ending his 19-year career as the league's ninth all-time leading scorer.

    Anthony announced his retirement Monday, saying in a social media video that "the time has come for me to say good bye."

    Anthony, who turns 39 next week, was a 10-time All-Star who scored 28,289 points over parts of 19 seasons with six different teams. He did not play this season and last played with the Lakers in 2021-22.

    Rockets legend retirement thread should be in the GARM. Not to mention he's the key to a championship formula.

    I remember Olympics Melo. That's part of CF lore too.

    I thought he was already retired. Sad for him he didn’t get the Dirk/Wade send off. He should have just stayed a Nugget. He would have been treated as an all-time great if he had finished his career out in Denver

    Remember when CF was feeling competitive with some Blazers forum over who would sign Melo? They both ended up getting him, which means we both lost.

    Many people didn't think Melo's ball dominant style would fit guys like Harden and CP3. Some fans argued that Melo could thrive with other star players, using the Olympics Melo as evidence.

    Great tournament run. The rest wasn't memorable. Worthy of the Hall, but not memorable.
