## Resource

Carmelo Anthony is buzzing about rookie Meleek Thomas, calling him a sleeper who’s proving doubters wrong with explosive summer league performances—averaging 27.3 points, shooting over 50% from the field, and dropping 35 points in one game. Drafted 22nd, Melo thinks Thomas should’ve been a top-20 pick, but he’s betting on himself—and crushing expectations. Thomas is outshining higher picks, and Melo’s hype is just the beginning.
