Carmelo Anthony played just one season for Syracuse, in 2003, but it was a memorable one. In 2018 Jordan Brand celebrated Carmelo Anthony’s national championship-winning season with the Air Jordan 9 Melo “MOP”. Utilizing one of Anthony’s favorite Air Jordan silhouettes, the sneakers pay tribute to the Most Outstanding Player award that he won after leading the Orangemen to the national title as a freshman. The Air Jordan 9 Melo "MOP" features a white leather base with woodgrain-textured paneling and metallic gold details.
