Carmelo Anthony, the Brooklyn-born former Knicks star who scored the ninth-most points in NBA history, announced his retirement Monday.

The 10-time All-Star, who played for New York from 2011 to 2017, averaged 22.5 points per game across 19 NBA seasons. He last played during the 2021-22 season with the Los Angeles Lakers.

“The time has come for me to say goodbye to the court where I made my name, to the game that gave me purpose and pride,” Anthony said in a video announcement.
