Carmelo Anthony had one of the greatest NCAA college careers ever in his one year playing for Syracuse. On a recent appearance on Uninterrupted’s WRTS: After Party show, the Portland Trail Blazers forward talked about how he ‘ got the heads up ‘ prior to the NCAA tournament that T.J. Ford of Texas had been given the award.
Longtime partner of LeBron James: Maverick Carter was also a guest on the show, and he asked Melo if Ford winning had lit a fire under him. Melo obviously had one of the greatest NCAA tournament runs of all-time as Syracuse won a National title with the six-foot-nine forward as their number one guy.
