One of the biggest additions made by the Los Angeles Lakers this offseason was that of veteran forward Carmelo Anthony. Long one of the NBA’s best scorers, Anthony has adjusted well to being more of a role player over the last couple of seasons.
This will certainly need to be the case with the Lakers as he is one of many veterans surrounding stars LeBron James, Anthony Davis, and Russell Westbrook. For his part, Anthony has spoken on his desire to do whatever is necessary to win his first NBA Championship, but his old coach is a bit dubious about this.
