Kiyan Anthony basically grew up inside Madison Square Garden.
When Kiyan was 3, his father, Carmelo Anthony, was traded to the Knicks. He was at MSG to see his dad set the Knicks’ single-game scoring record of 62 points, and so many other moments that have stuck with him. He frequently worked out in the building before games.
Sunday night will be different, when he takes the court as a player for his dad’s old school, as Syracuse meets No. 13 St. John’s in an anticipated showdown.
“That’s kind of my home,” the 19-year-old Anthony told The Post in a phone interview. “It’ll be lit, for sure. For it to be in the Garden, definitely going to be a movie. I got a lot of family coming, I got a lot of people I know coming. For us to play St. John’s in the Garden, one of those games where you have to come out and be ready to do whatever to try to win.”
