Here’s a Look Back at Carmelo Anthony’s Iconic SLAM Covers and More

After 19 years in the NBA, Carmelo Anthony has officially announced he is retiring from the game.

From Denver to New York, we’ve captured Melo’s career over the years as one of the coldest scorers to ever do it. He’s graced the cover of SLAM six times, guest edited our Social Justice Special Issue and just last year, appeared on an episode of LeagueFits’ Survival of the Fitted podcast alongside Dwyane Wade.

To celebrate his legacy, here’s a look back at our Carmelo Anthony SLAM covers and more.
