So much so, that the 6-foot-7 forward took advantage of Halloween and decided to dress up as old school Melo this year.</p><p>Scott <a href="https://www.nbcsports.com/philadelphia/sixers/sixers-mike-scott-totally-nailed-his-carmelo-anthony-themed-halloween-costume?cid=Yahoo&amp;partner=ya4nbcs">shared the image on his Instagram page</a>, where he proudly rocked Anthony’s no.15 Denver jersey, alongside his signature headband, a big white t-shirt, and some good old baggy jeans.</p><figure><img src="https://clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/11/MikeScott.jpg"></figure><p>That 2000s swag look, of course, won’t be complete without an all-white Air Force 1s. It is worth noting that Carmelo Anthony is the <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/carmelo-anthony-shares-story-how-michael-jordan-chose-him-over-lebron-james-for-jordan-brand/">Jordan brand’s first-ever signature athlete</a>.</p><p>Although Scott and Melo have never been teammates in the NBA, both have ties from the opposites of Virginia. The younger Scott was around 15 years old by the time the Nuggets drafted Melo third overall in the stacked 2003 Draft. Considering he also had dreams of one day making it to the league, Scott looked up to Anthony as a role model who practically grew up around the same area.</p><p>Scott grew up in Chesapeake, Virginia, while Melo was born in New York but relocated to Mouth of Wilson to play for the prestige Oak Hill Academy in high school.</p><p>After playing out his collegiate eligibility at the University of Virginia, Scott made it to the NBA in 2012. He’s had his battles with Melo over the years and actually defended the 10-time All-Star during most of those head-to-heads. Scott does have a bit of Anthony in his game, particularly his ability to bang bodies in the post and make opponents pay with his 3-point range. He’s also around the same height as Melo and possesses the same stocky built.</p><p>One thing’s for sure, Carmelo Anthony has certainly influenced Mike Scott greatly, both on and off the court.</p><figure class="op-tracker"><iframe><script>  (function(i,s,o,g,r,a,m){i['GoogleAnalyticsObject']=r;i[r]=i[r]||function(){  (i[r].q=i[r].q||[]).push(arguments)},i[r].l=1*new Date();a=s.createElement(o),  m=s.getElementsByTagName(o)[0];a.async=1;a.src=g;m.parentNode.insertBefore(a,m)  })(window,document,'script','https://www.google-analytics.com/analytics.js','ga');  ga('create', 'UA-66147751-16', 'auto');  ga('set', 'campaignSource', 'Facebook');  ga('set', 'campaignMedium', 'Instant Article');  ga('set', 'title', ia_document.title);  ga('send', 'pageview');</script><script type="text/javascript">      window._taboola = window._taboola || [];      _taboola.push({          article: 'auto',          ref_url: 'http://instantarticles.fb.com'      });      !function (e, f, u, i) {          if (!document.getElementById(i)) {              e.async = 1;              e.src = u;              e.id = i;              f.parentNode.insertBefore(e, f);          }      }(document.createElement('script'),          document.getElementsByTagName('script')[0],          'https://cdn.taboola.com/libtrc/clutchpoints-clutchpoints/trk.js',          'tb_loader_script');      if (window.performance) {          if (typeof window.performance.mark == 'function') {            window.performance.mark('tbl_ic');          }        }</script></iframe></figure></article>    </body></html>

It’s very easy to misconstrue his pray-for-everyone message as in a way, taking the side of the embattled police officers. Going through the comments on the post will show you just how much this has backfired in Porter’s face.</p><p>The unfortunate death of Floyd has captivated the whole nation as what is deemed as another act of racial discrimination at the hands of the authorities.

There have been no games for the past week, and it does not look like the season is going to resume anytime soon. For Philadelphia 76ers rookie Matisse Thybulle, this lull has led to his discovery of the wonderful world of TikTok. Sixers teammate Mike Scott came across Thybulle’s recent performance on the highly popular social media platform, and he had an epic reaction.</p><p>Check it out:</p><figure class="op-interactive"><iframe class="no-margin"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="550" data-dnt="true"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">What is this fuckery <a target="_blank" href="https://t.co/t6dEOiZVVI">https://t.co/t6dEOiZVVI</a></p><p>— Mike Scott (@mikescott) <a target="_blank" href="https://twitter.com/mikescott/status/1239528545589886976?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">March 16, 2020</a></p></blockquote><p><script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></p></iframe></figure><p>To be honest, Thybulle’s video is pretty impressive. It must have taken him a lot of time and effort to come out with this, which just proves how much free time he has on his hands right now. On the other hand, we’re just not sure if Scott was truly impressed with his teammate’s effort, or that he was absolutely baffled by Thybulle’s decision to subject himself to the TikTok craze.</p><p>On the hardwood, Thybulle was actually having a tremendous season for the Sixers prior to the shutdown. The 20th overall pick’s averages of <a href="https://www.basketball-reference.com/players/t/thybuma01.html#all_per_game">4.7 points</a>, 1.5 rebounds, 1.2 assists, 1.4 steals, and 0.7 blocks in 19.5 minutes per game aren’t mind-blowing, but the 6-foot-5 shooting guard’s contributions for his squad go beyond the box score. Thybulle is currently regarded as arguably the best defender in his class, and at this point, it appears he will only get better.</p><p>—</p><p><i>Follow ClutchPoints on </i><a href="https://twitter.com/clutchpointsapp" rel="noopener noreferrer"><i>Twitter</i></a><i> &amp; </i><a href="https://www.instagram.com/clutchpoints/?hl=en" rel="noopener noreferrer"><i>Instagram</i></a><i>, and like us on </i><a href="https://www.facebook.com/ClutchPoints/" rel="noopener noreferrer"><i>Facebook</i></a><i>.

It was more of an absolute thrashing, actually, with Philadelphia coming out on top, 141-94.</p><p>Following the game, Sixers guard <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/sports/nba/players/josh-richardson/adca08f0/">Josh Richardson</a> shared a photo which captured Scott in what appears to be a very deep state of thought. Scott took to the comments section of Richardson’s Instagram post to share that his mind was actually quite far away during that moment.</p><figure class="op-interactive"><iframe class="no-margin"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="550" data-dnt="true"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Thank you for being you <a target="_blank" href="https://twitter.com/mikescott?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@mikescott</a> <a target="_blank" href="https://t.co/XN6HfMdiLT">pic.twitter.com/XN6HfMdiLT</a></p><p>— Harrison (@harrisznburns) <a target="_blank" href="https://twitter.com/harrisznburns/status/1203539994733760512?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">December 8, 2019</a></p></blockquote><p><script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></p></iframe></figure><p>Scott goes on to explain that he was actually thinking about Bruce Willis in the 1998 hit film “Armageddon,” but what makes this even more hilarious is how the 6-foot-7 power forward appears to have a conversation with himself in the comments section. This is gold right here.</p><p>Kidding aside, though, Scott was pretty awesome on Saturday, recording a season-high 21 points on a highly-efficient 9-of-12 shooting, along with three 3-pointers, six rebounds, and two dimes. The 31-year-old made a spot start for the Sixers, with superstar big man <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/sports/nba/players/joel-embiid/bafc0a09/">Joel Embiid</a> given the night off. Scott certainly took advantage of the rare opportunity, and followed it up with a tremendous post-game performance on Instagram.</p><p>Scott has been a steady contributor for Philadelphia this season, averaging <a href="https://www.basketball-reference.com/players/s/scottmi01.html#all_per_game">6.0 points</a> and 3.4 rebounds in 19.2 minutes off the bench. There is no shortage of firepower in the Sixers’ current lineup, so this is exactly the type of production they need from a wily veteran like Scott.</p><figure class="op-tracker"><iframe><script>  (function(i,s,o,g,r,a,m){i['GoogleAnalyticsObject']=r;i[r]=i[r]||function(){  (i[r].q=i[r].q||[]).push(arguments)},i[r].l=1*new Date();a=s.createElement(o),  m=s.getElementsByTagName(o)[0];a.async=1;a.src=g;m.parentNode.insertBefore(a,m)  })(window,document,'script','https://www.google-analytics.com/analytics.js','ga');  ga('create', 'UA-66147751-16', 'auto');  ga('set', 'campaignSource', 'Facebook');  ga('set', 'campaignMedium', 'Instant Article');  ga('set', 'title', ia_document.title);  ga('send', 'pageview');</script><iframe>    <script type="text/javascript">        window._taboola = window._taboola || [];        _taboola.push({            article: 'auto',            ref_url: 'http://instantarticles.fb.com'        });        !function (e, f, u, i) {            if (!document.getElementById(i)) {                e.async = 1;                e.src = u;                e.id = i;                f.parentNode.insertBefore(e, f);            }        }(document.createElement('script'),            document.getElementsByTagName('script')[0],            'https://cdn.taboola.com/libtrc/clutchpoints-clutchpoints/trk.js',            'tb_loader_script');        if (window.performance) {          if (typeof window.performance.mark == 'function') {            window.performance.mark('tbl_ic');          }        }    </script>    </iframe></iframe></figure></article>    </body></html>
