Carmelo says he’ll scope out Porzingis in 1-on-1 workout

Now Carmelo Anthony is dropping L-bombs on divisive Knicks draft pick Kristaps Porzingis.

“I really love him,” Anthony told a TMZ cameraman as he exited a Sunday night triple date in Los Angeles with wife La La, power couple Russell Wilson and Ciara, singer Kelly Rowland and her plus-one.

Anthony then said he was planning to meet Porzingis for a workout on Monday.

Anthony spent several days following the draft trying to distance himself from reports he was upset with Phil Jackson over the selection of the towering 19-year-old Latvian forward, who went No.
