Through Orlando Magic guard Cole Anthony's 50 Ways Foundation, he continues to immerse himself in what could be his 'forever home.'
ORLANDO — It was the kind of hot, swampy Floridian evening that usually only ice cream can rectify at Ivey Lane Neighborhood Center.
When considering Orlando, a “second” tag isn’t needed in front of the word home. With every effort made to give back to the community, Anthony's roots here grow deeper. “It just helps me get more in touch with the community, seeing the next generation of kids,” Anthony said. “Because look, this could end up being my forever home. I don’t know. I’d love it to be. It’s just dope to try to help some kids out, and I really look forward to trying to do more in the future.”
Anthony, who is the son of former NBA standout Greg Anthony, signed jerseys on Wednesday night and — with the help of a live DJ — found himself in a few dance battles as the good times kept rolling on. Right as the organized games and giveaway portion of the evening commenced, Magic center and teammate Wendell Carter Jr. made an appearance of his own.
At just 24 years of age, Anthony admits it’s a bit of a shock to think about the next generation. Yet, he’s aware that's where the future lies.
