Melo also celebrated his retirement with some Instagram pictures.
Yesterday (August 21), Melo shocked fans after announcing he would no longer compete in future Team USA basketball games.
Anthony fought back tears during his interview with NBC moments after Team USA won its third straight gold medal with a 96-66 blowout against Serbia on Sunday. “I know this is the end. This is it for me. I committed to something,” he said, tearing up as chants of “Melo! Melo!” rang behind him. “I committed to this in ‘04, I’ve seen the worst and I’ve seen the best. And I stuck with it, we stuck with it, and I’m here today, three gold medals later.” (New York Daily News)
