Kiyan Anthony's first action on a Syracuse court is still roughly a year away, but La La Anthony tells TMZ Sports she's already planning her gameday outfits!!! The mother of the four-star shooting guard -- who she shares with NBA legend Carmelo Anthony -- made it clear to us while leaving the Million Dollar Giveback event in NYC this week that she's "going to be that mom." "I don't have [the 'fits] yet," she told us, "but I think I'm going to be that mom that's, like, Syracuse-geared out. For sure."
Former Syracuse head coach and Team USA assistant Jim Boeheim says the future will be bright for the U.S. even after that trio of 30-somethings exits the international stage. Led by Curry’s 24 points on 8-of-12 shooting from beyond the arc, the Americans won their fifth straight gold medal, 98-87, over France on Saturday in Paris. “I’m not worried about our game,” Boeheim said on SiriusXM NBA Radio with Sam Vincent and Vince Goodwill ahead of the gold-medal game. “I think we’re still going to be there. A guy like Cooper Flagg coming, some of these young players coming out the next couple years are really good. “We haven’t had these guys, the kid AJ Dybantsa there, the big Boozer kid [Cam Boozer], Carlos’s son, there are some really good players coming along.”
NBA legend Michael Jordan was in attendance for Dwight Freeney’s enshrinement into the Pro Football Hall of Fame on Saturday in Canton, Ohio. Jordan, who Freeney refers to as a big brother, was seated with the former Syracuse defensive end’s friends and family during Saturday’s ceremony.
