Former New York Knicks superstar Carmelo Anthony appears to have found love with his old team on the verge of an NBA championship. 

Melo remains one of the highest-profile stars to ever play in NY colors, but the Knickerbockers never got a sniff at a title during his era. 

The Knicks are now just one game away from glory, while Anthony seems like he also has plenty to celebrate. 

The 10-time All-Star appeared to go public with his relationship with Racquel Smith. 

Carmelo Anthony ISn’t Here For A Long Time

Racquel is the widow of former NFL star Will Smith, who died in a shooting in New Orleans in 2016. 

She’s popped up in a viral photo alongside Carmelo, which she recently shared via her IG. 

“We are not here long enough to be living unhappy,” she wrote. 

Racquel also gave Melo a shoutout, with the former forward having celebrated his 42nd birthday last week. 

Smith, an All-Pro defensive end, was a member of the Saints at the time of his murder. Racquel also got shot in the incident but survived. 

Cardell Hayes was convicted of manslaughter in 2024. 

As for Anthony, the former NBA star has been single since his divorce from La La Anthony after 11 years of marriage.
