The New York Knicks have a lot of young players to develop and mentor. Rumors are starting that Carmelo Anthony may be the perfect role model.
While that all sounds good, Anthony can’t fill that role. He isn’t the type of player that’s going to take a backseat to anyone. But new team president Leon Rose has already been linked to possibly bringing Anthony back to the Knicks.
When the Knicks made their last playoff run in 2012, Anthony was surrounded by players similar in age. It wasn’t until the end of his Knicks tenure when the youth movement began.
