Carmelo Anthony weighs in on possibility of Knicks number retirement after Hall of Fame nod
NY Post
SAN ANTONIO – “Why not?”
That was Carmelo Anthony’s response when asked if his No. 7 jersey should be retired by the Knicks.
Anthony was at the Final Four at the Alamodome on Saturday for the announcement that he was being inducted into the Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame.
“I would love to see that,” the 10-time NBA All-Star said. “For me, it’s like, ‘Why wait?’ If you got to think about it then cool, just let it be.”
Two years ago, Ian Begley of SNY reported that there were some within the franchise who felt that Anthony did enough in his seven seasons with the Knicks to warrant such an honor.
“I don’t know man, to be honest with you,” Anthony, who has remained a favorite among Knicks fans, said. “A lot of surprises are happening right now around me, so I’m trying to stay in the moment, and if that’s one of the surprises, then I would be ecstatic about that. I would love to see that jersey hung up.”
