New York Knicks star Carmelo Anthony continued his ascension of the NBA’s all-time scoring list by passing Charles Barkley for sole possession of No. 25.

Carmelo Anthony is in the 14th season of what’s become a Hall of Fame career. The six-time All-NBA honoree has pieced together a resume that will earn him the great honor of being enshrined into the Naismith Memorial once he retires from the Association.

Nothing has defined Anthony’s success as an NBA player quite like his uncanny ability to put points on the board.

Anthony is widely regarded as one of the greatest scorers in NBA history. His well-rounded skill set, as well as a unique combination of size, power, and agility, enabled him to win the 2013 scoring title.

In his 55th appearance of the 2016-17 NBA regular season, Anthony further solidified his legacy by cracking the Top 25 on the all-time scoring list.
