<span style="font-weight: 400">Anthony?s parents moved to Baltimore before his teenage years, which allowed him to gain more exposure in basketball. He attended two different high schools, one being the Towson Catholic where he played for three years.?</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400">The Brooklyn native reached a tremendous height by his junior year and attracted several scouts with his impeccable talent. Anthony?s mother transferred him to Oak Hill Academy in Virginia for his senior year.?</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400">After getting off to a 67-0 win streak with Oak Hill, Anthony finally faced defeat against a <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/lebron-james/">LeBron James</a>-led St. Vincent-St. Mary high-school. The Oak Hill forward was one of the top-rated recruits coming out of high-school and had the option to forego college and join the NBA.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400">Despite being eligible to enter the league, Carmelo Anthony decided to attend one year at Syracuse for more experience. The Syracuse Orange went on to win the NCAA championship in Anthony?s freshman season, and he averaged 22.2 points during the championship run.?</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400">As for his personal life, Carmelo Anthony got engaged to La La Anthony in 2004. The couple tied the knot in 2010, three years after the birth of their son Kiyan.?</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400">Their relationship suffered rocky instances late in the 2010s and both parties mutually agreed for a divorce, but La La and Melo seem to be back together for good.</span>
<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Carmelo Anthony NBA Career</b></h2>
<span style="font-weight: 400">Anthony initially wanted to play at Syracuse for a longer period, but felt the need to leave after winning the championship as a freshman. He set out on a new endeavor, and the <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/nba/denver-nuggets/">Denver Nuggets</a> used their third overall pick to select Melo in the 2003 NBA Draft.?</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400">He made his debut against the San Antonio Spurs and averaged an impressive 21.0 points per game as a rookie. Anthony finished second in the Rookie of the Year voting behind LeBron James and replicated similar form in the subsequent seasons as well.?</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400">He played with the Nuggets for eight years and registered several iconic moments with them. He reached his prime during the late 2000s and notched up 30 point games for fun.

<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Trouble with the Knicks and career resurrection?</b></h2>
<span style="font-weight: 400">Melo to the Knicks was a dreamy move, and fans in New York went crazy about him joining their franchise. He had developed as one of the league?s best players by that time, but collective success was hard to come by for the team.?</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400">Melo averaged 24.7 points and 2.4 blocks per game in seven seasons with the Knicks and had a fallout with Phil Jackson, who the President of the franchise at that period. Jackson wasn?t keen on keeping Anthony as he felt the forward didn?t fit well in his offensive plans.?</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400">Thus, Anthony was consequently sent to <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/nba/oklahoma-city-thunder/">OKC</a> when he played for a year. Melo?s career took a sharp downward spike after his Knicks exit, and the 'superstar' status soon left his name after a dip in scoring averages.?</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400">He then joined the <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/nba/houston-rockets/">Houston Rockets</a> after one year in Oklahoma, a move that put a dark dent in Melo?s career.

<span style="font-weight: 400">The Rockets then traded Melo to the Blazers in 2019, where he found a beam of shining light once again. </span>

<span style="font-weight: 400">Though age caught up, Melo was able to perform at a challenging level in Portland. His veteran experience proved to be the perfect match for the team?s young core.?</span>

After acting as the spark plug off of the bench, the Trail Blazers were not willing to take back the veteran forward to the team. But Melo had a special team waiting for him in the off-season, close friend LeBron James' Lakers.

The Purple and Gold who have been on a roll of signing veterans, brought up Melo as they needed shooting in their team. Given that the 2021-22 season will be the first time LBJ and Melo will play with each other, fans simply can't wait to see the duo this season.

Furthermore, Butler pockets around $10 million per year from his endorsements.
<h2><b>Jimmy Butler?s Early Life?</b></h2>
Jimmy Butler was born on September 14, 1989, in Houston, where he spent most of his early years. He graduated from Tomball High School, Texas in 2007, where he was a basketball superstar. Butler then attended Tyler Junior College, since he was not considered a huge college prospect. After his freshman year, the 6'7" star accepted an offer from Marquette to play college basketball in 2008. Butler graduated with a Bachelor of Arts degree in communications from Marquette in 2011.
<h2><b>Jimmy Butler?s Family and Personal Life</b></h2>
Jimmy Butler's parents are Jimmy Butler Senior and Londa Butler. The 6-time NBA All-Star had a very tough childhood. His father abandoned the family when Jimmy was an infant. Also, according to various reports, Londa kicked Jimmy out of the house when he was just 13 years old. The teenager was homeless and spent years alternating between friends' couches. He did not have a stable roof over his head until he was 17 when he met his close friend, Jordan Leslie, at a basketball camp.

They soon became very close friends. Jordan's mother, Michelle Lambert, and stepfather already had seven children to take care of. Despite this, Michelle insisted Butler stay with their family when she found out he was homeless. Even though Jimmy was abandoned by his biological parents, he does not hold any grudge and maintains a good relationship with them.

Butler has been in a romantic relationship with Kaitlin Nowak since 2019. Nowak is a model and entrepreneur who tries to stay from the spotlight. The couple welcomed their daughter Rylee in October 2019.
<h2><b>Jimmy Butler?s Basketball Career</b></h2>
Jimmy Butler was a high school basketball superstar at Tomball High School, despite being homeless. However, he was not a huge prospect and so he decided to attend Tyler Junior College. He then attracted interest from various Division I schools after his freshman year, including Marquette. Jimmy accepted Marquette's scholarship and continued his development by playing college basketball for the next three years. He won multiple accolades for his performances in college. After graduating in 2011, he declared for the NBA draft.

Again, Jimmy was not considered a big prospect, and many teams passed up on the opportunity to draft him. The Chicago Bulls selected him as the 30th overall pick in the first round. In his rookie season, he did not get much playing time. His patience paid off in his sophomore season as he saw a considerable jump in playing time. However, Jimmy had to ply his time and prove he can be a good asset to the team. So he worked hard on the defensive end and earned the starting spot in his third year in the league.

The next year, Jimmy averaged 20 points per game and earned his first All-Star appearance. He continued his ascension and became the main man for the Bulls. In 2017, he was traded to the Minnesota Timberwolves. After just one season, the Timberwolves traded him to the Philadelphia 76ers. The trend continued as the 76ers then traded Butler to the Miami Heat after just one season.

Finally, Jimmy found his home in Miami. It is arguably a match made in heaven given the mentality of Butler and the renowned Heat Culture. In his first season with the Heat, Jimmy led the team to the 2019-20 NBA Finals. Unfortunately, the team lost the title against the Los Angeles Lakers. Fast forward to the 2022-23 season, and he has again willed his team to the Finals despite being the 8th seed.
