La La Anthony’s 12-year-old son, Kiyan, is showing that talent runs in the family and may be eyeing a career as a future baller after getting some pointers from his famous father.
The “BH90210” actress shared a video of Kiyan learning moves from Carmelo Anthony and the NBA star is breaking down some serious high level skills to the youngster.
“Melo teaching Kiyan his signature moves,” Lala said. “My son is always working hard, never complains, and truly loves the game of basketball.”
The video features Melo teaching his son some dribbling drills, as well as posting up and shooting ... which the kid nails.
“He is blessed to have the best teacher in the game...his dad,” Kiyan’s mom continued. “He wants to learn all of Mel’s moves & he studies them constantly. Super proud of his hard work and dedication…”

Several of La La's famous friends noted that they were impressed with the skills and the relationship Kiyan has with his father.
Kim Kardashian commented, “I love this,” and included a heart and basketball emoji.
Fellow baller, Matt Barnes, said, “no one better to teach em,” while Larenz Tate commented, “Father Son relationship is critical.”

La La's relationship with Melo has not been that easy recently. She was first spotted without her wedding ring back in July and our sources say she has spoken to divorce attorneys about what to do with the marriage.
Rumors of infidelity started after Melo was seen on a yacht with a model in Europe but he was quick to deny that anything inappropriate happened.
Throughout the marriage drama, the couple has alway supported Kiyan and his goals of becoming a great NBA star, just like his father.
