Former New York Knicks teammates Jeremy Lin and Carmelo Anthony have put an end to the rift that lingered between them for 14 years, the pair confirmed on June 12, 2026.
The long-running tension, which began during the Knicks’ 2011-12 season, was finally resolved when the two met in New York. During the brief reunion, one of them reportedly asked, “What happened here?”—a question that highlighted just how much time had passed since their on-court partnership devolved into silence.
Specifics of the conversation were not released, but both former Knicks indicated they want to move forward and leave past disagreements behind.
The reconciliation closes the book on one of the most publicized internal disputes in recent franchise history and reopens the possibility of joint public appearances as the organization continues to honor its former players.
