Carmelo Anthony made a late-night snack run in a monogrammed robe

Did Carmelo Anthony think people wouldn’t recognize him in a robe with his name on it?

Carmelo Anthony’s fridge must have been pretty empty after getting back from Rio, so he was forced to go out Thursday night for a snack. We all do this, but not quite like Melo.

His chosen attire? A bath robe with his name on it. His wife, justifiably, gave him a pretty hard time about it.

Look, there’s no way the 6'8" star player for the Knicks can go unnoticed in New York, so you might as well not even try to blend in.

Or maybe it was an homage to New York mobster Vinny the Chin.
