NEW YORK — On Oct. 6, 2025, former Knicks star Carmelo Anthony delivered a confident forecast about the franchise’s future and punctuated his statement with a flourish: “Just dropped the microphone.”
The remark, reported by the New York Post, did not include further details of Anthony’s prediction, but the 10-time NBA All-Star’s choice of words underscored his belief that significant success is on the horizon for New York.
Anthony, 41, retired from the league in 2023 after spending parts of seven seasons with the Knicks from 2011 to 2017. His latest comment marks another public show of support for the team with which he earned six All-Star selections and led to three postseason appearances.
The Post did not specify where Anthony made the prediction or whether he provided a timeline for the Knicks’ potential breakthrough.
