Lakers Rumors: Carmelo Anthony Not In Plans If Released By Rockets

Although we’re just one month into the NBA season, it appears as though the Carmelo Anthony experience for the Houston Rockets has not gone as planned. Through 13 games, the Rockets are 6-7 and playing near the bottom of the league on defense.

And as it goes with almost every marquee free agent, there was speculation over the summer when Anthony was a free agent that he may sign with the Los Angeles Lakers because of his friendship with LeBron James.

In the last two years, Anthony has been tied to problems on both the Oklahoma City Thunder and now the Rockets.
