Kiyan was an influencer before Syracuse, so I'm sure all the players knew the deal coming in of playing with someone who is very high profile beyond the basketball court. It also helps we are in a different era, all of the players seem to be well taken care of financially. Carmelo and Kiyan also know the deal that beyond the desire of wanting the best for the success of Syracuse, it's good for business to be apart of playing a fun brand of team basketball. You kind of got a sneak peak in the Peacock segment that Carmelo was very excited with the brand of basketball the team was playing on Monday night. Success for the basketball program with Kiyan will only bring more exposure to the program and help with the increasing the marketability of his teammates, as well as himself.
