2025 four-star guard Kiyan Anthony is looking to visit Indiana basketball, per a report from Basketball Insider Adam Zagoria. There are no specific dates set at this time.

The report also says that Anthony is planning to visit Florida State, Syracuse and Michigan as well. Other schools interest in Anthony include Illinois, Maryland, UCF, West Virginia, Seton Hall, Providence, Tennessee, UMass, George Mason, and others.

Kıyan Anthony is the son of future NBA Hall of Fame Carmelo Anthony, who Indiana basketball head coach Mike Woodson coached with the New York Knicks from 2011-14. Anthony led the NBA in scoring in the 2013-14 season at 28.7 points per game.

Indiana extended an offer to Kiyan Anthony this past May. 

Kiyan Anthony is a four-star guard in the class of 2025. He is ranked No. 44 in the 247Sports 2025 rankings. He is a 6-foot-4 wing who plays for Christ the King (NY).

Anthony played for Team Melo 16U on the Nike EYBL circuit this past summer and looked very good all summer. In 16 games for Team Melo, the four-star guard averaged 15.9 points, 3.9 rebounds, and 2.4 assists per game.

He is a very good scorer and has a great ability to create on the wing and finish from 15-feet and out. Anthony has tremendous length on the perimeter. His playmaking is getting better and better.

247Sports national recruiting director Eric Bossi saw Anthony during the second live period. He broke down his game and development.

“Anthony impressed with deep shot making, the ability to attack of the dribble and he had some really nice live ball finds to teammates for easy buckets. He’s still quite thin, but he appears to have stretched out some since the high school season and it wouldn’t be a surprise if he’s in the middle of his growth spurt,” Bossi wrote. “It was back between his sophomore and junior year – the summer of 2000 – when Anthony’s dad first rose to prominence and Kiyan is making big strides at the exact same time. Not surprisingly, Syracuse had an assistant on hand each time Anthony took the floor.”

Below are extended highlights of Kiyan Anthony.
