Carmelo Anthony Marks Hall of Fame With Hall of Flame Cannabis Drop

Carmelo Anthony just made basketball history. The ten-time NBA All-Star was inducted into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame this September, a moment that cements his place among the game’s greats. Now, the New York legend is marking that milestone in a very different way: with weed.

Anthony’s STAYME7O Cannabis is teaming up with Skyworld, an Indigenous-led New York brand, for a special release called the Hall of Flame. The drop features limited runs of flower and infused pre-rolls, packaged with collectible pins and branded as a cultural celebration of Anthony’s induction weekend.

A Collaboration Rooted in Culture

Skyworld was founded by Alex Anderson of the Tuscarora Nation, who built the company around Indigenous tradition and unity. For Anthony, linking with Anderson’s team was about more than product.

“STAYME7O is more than a brand, it is an intentional mindset and community dedicated to shifting perspectives,” Anthony said. “The launch of our Hall of Flame celebrates Indigenous leadership, honors tradition, and connects people in a meaningful way.”

For Skyworld, the collaboration is an opportunity to put Indigenous voices and values at the center of New York’s cannabis story.

The Bigger Picture

Anthony is not the first athlete to make the jump into cannabis, but the timing and symbolism make this move stand out. Cannabis has long been tied to recovery, wellness, and creative flow for athletes, even as leagues punished players for its use. Today, the culture has flipped. A Hall of Famer can launch a weed line in New York without fear of stigma, turning what once might have been scandal into celebration.

The partnership also underscores how cannabis is becoming a platform for equity. Skyworld’s Indigenous leadership, paired with Anthony’s celebrity status, signals a different type of brand play, one that blends legacy, community, and culture instead of just chasing hype.

Hall of Flame

The Hall of Flame is available across licensed dispensaries in New York through Skyworld’s network. The strain lineup includes Zero Gravity x Garlotti eighths and infused pre-rolls, but the real story is not what is in the jars. It is the fact that a Hall of Famer chose to mark his induction not with a champagne toast, but with cannabis.

From the Garden to the Hall of Fame, and now into dispensary shelves, Carmelo Anthony’s journey is a reminder of how far both basketball and weed have come.
