Carmelo Anthony of the Trail Blazers applauds New Orleans Pelicans fan who says he must retire

Carmelo Anthony is definitely not the one to play with.

The Portland Trail Blazers forward made it known (once again) Wednesday night in New Orleans against the Pelicans.

In the third quarter of the Blazers’ 126-124 win, a fan in the crowd had a message for the veteran: hang up. The Smoothie King Arena Pelicans are one of the few NBA teams that allow fans to attend.

The rowdy shouted: “Carmelo, you must withdraw!”

Anthony turned around and gave the fan a cold “Close Your Ass.” The Pelicans broadcast captured the moment during the game:

Anthony is the most experienced player on the Blazers list. He has been instrumental in helping Portland start 18-10 this season. The Blazers have won eight of their last nine games and, during the month of February, Anthony averaged 15.8 points shooting 43% from the field and 43% from three.

I don’t think he’ll be going anywhere anytime soon.
