Former LA Lakers star Carmelo Anthony's son, Kiyan Anthony, was named the No. 1 high school player in New York in the class of 2025 by ESPN. He received the news while he was on a trip to Tokyo, Japan, with his mother, reality television star La La Anthony.
Kiyan went viral for getting his mother's face tattooed on his forearm complete with a message dedicated to her, showcasing the close bond that they share.
La La shared pictures of herself, Kiyan Anthony and unidentified companions on Instagram from their trip to Japan.
She captioned it:
"🎶 I went and copped the chopsticks 🥢 put it in my bun just to pop s#%t 🎶," she wrote.
La La and Kiyan Anthony share bond despite divorce from Carmelo
La La and Carmelo Anthony got divorced in 2021 but have continued to support their son, Kiyan Anthony, at his games. In an interview on the "Angie Martinez Show," the reality television star spoke about her much-publicized divorce from the former NBA star.
“It’s been years now since then,” La La said. “To a lot of people, it feels like this single thing is new. It’s been years now that we’ve separated, so I’ve dealt with the emotions behind it. I still have my moments, but for the most part, I can talk about it now, laugh about it and find the humor in it all.”
During an interview on the "Breakfast Club," La La spoke about her new perspective on marriage.
"I’m never getting married again,” she said. “It’s one of those things in life that I feel like I could check it off. Like, ‘Okay, I did that.’ Maybe people want to say they’ve experienced that. I’ve experienced it and I know the good and the bad that happened to me, so it’s not something I want to experience again. I can have an incredible relationship with somebody and not be married.”
Kiyan Anthony, on the other hand, will have a huge decision to make in a few months as he seeks to embark on a college basketball career as a gateway to the NBA, and it seems as if his parents are both supporting him in his quest to achieve that lofty dream.
