It probably doesn’t come as much of a surprise, since he couldn’t catch on with an NBA team last season. Still, it’s the end of an incredible ride for Melo, who finished in ninth place in NBA history in scoring. He also won four Olympic medals (three gold) and an NCAA championship with Syracuse.
Though he technically played one more season as a Denver Nugget, Melo will probably be remembered for his years as a Knick.
