The sports world was taken by surprise on Tuesday when the Denver Nuggets announced the dismissal of head coach Michael Malone, with only three games remaining in the NBA regular season.
Malone, who had led the Nuggets to their first-ever championship just two years prior, was let go despite the team’s recent struggles. Although the Nuggets had been experiencing a losing streak, they were still poised for a potential deep playoff run, with the same core group of players and coaches who had previously won the championship.
Following Malone’s departure, the team has appointed assistant coach David Adelman as the interim head coach.
The news spread quickly across NBA-related social media platforms and reached former Denver Nugget Carmelo Anthony while he was in the midst of recording an episode for his podcast, “7PM in Brooklyn.”
The moment Anthony learned of the news, his astonished reaction was captured live during the podcast recording. He appeared genuinely shocked by the announcement.
“Wow, I’m trying to process that real quick,” Anthony remarked, managing a laugh amidst his surprise.
Shortly after, Anthony’s phone started to ring, likely with someone else calling to inform him about the Nuggets’ decision.

Interestingly, this wasn’t the only time Anthony’s reactions made headlines on Tuesday. His expressive response perfectly captured the sentiments of New York Knicks fans after a critical turnover led to an overtime defeat against the Boston Celtics.
