Excerpt from ‘Carmelo Anthony honored to follow in Kobe Bryant’s footsteps as Fiba World Cup ambassador’ article by Lance Agcaoili:
The 38-year-old NBA superstar, who is having fun on his first visit to Manila, hopes to follow in the footsteps of his fellow 2008 Redeem Team member, Bryant, as a World Cup global ambassador.
“It’s special to kinda follow what Kobe has created on the global scale of basketball. Him being an ambassador previously and being our friendship and our brotherhood and what we created over the years,” said Anthony during his formal introduction at Smart Araneta Coliseum.
“For me to just follow and continue and keep that legacy going not just for myself and not just for US but also for him too,” he added.
