Carmelo Anthony, Sue Bird, Dwight Howard and Maya Moore among picks for National Basketball Hall of Fame

Carmelo Anthony and Dwight Howard are going into the Basketball Hall of Fame – twice.

The duo, who were announced as members of the Class of 2025 on Saturday, will get their accolades for their individual starred careers, but also as part of the 2008 U.S. Olympic men's basketball team that they played on. This means LeBron James and Chris Paul are headed to the Hall even before their playing careers end for playing on the so-called "Redeem Team" that started a still-going run of five consecutive Olympic titles.

"I made it to the real basketball heaven," Howard said. "It's crazy."
