Kudos to Carmelo Anthony who led the United States with his amazing efforts and dropped a record 37 points against Nigeria. Although Anthony lost the starting position to Kevin Durant and took on the NO. 6 position of small forward; his star is still shining!
Melo’s 10 three pointers made, as well as his 12 attempted, were new Olympic records. Anthony’s 37 points during the game broke the American scoring record that was previously held by Stephon Marbury.
The United States team is en route to winning their second straight gold medal, and Anthony’s efforts are a huge part of it.
