Before the OKC Thunder can move forward with filling out the roster, they must do something with Carmelo Anthony. Specifically that contract of $27.9-million-dollar is going to be tough to move. One lure is it’s an expiring deal.
Obviously, the OKC Thunder prefer to trade Melo instead of stretching or buying him out. The Houston Rockets, Los Angeles Lakers and Miami Heat have been vigorously mentioned as potential suitors.
But, what about the Chicago Bulls?
Media outlets, numerous podcasts and publications emphasize that Melo has a no-trade clause.
