ANTHONY, PAUL CELEBRATE GOLD MEDAL WIN IN VEGAS
Just off the plane from the Beijing Olympics, Carmelo Anthony and Chris Paul of the gold medal-winning Team USA were out on the town in Las Vegas on Monday night.
They celebrated at N9NE Steakhouse at the Palms and made a visit to the kitchen where they signed memorabilia for sports-crazy chef Barry Dakake.
Meanwhile, Vegas Confidential has learned that Team USA's Jason Kidd will be sending Elaine Wynn his gold medal at the end of the month.
Steve and Elaine Wynn attended the gold medal game. Kidd and his Olympic teammates stayed at Wynn Las Vegas during their pre-Olympic training.
Kidd is going to keep the gold medal for press purposes, etc., before shipping it to Elaine, a longtime ardent basketball fan.
They met at a banquet last year.
