Thunder Notebook: 8.13.18

Carmelo Anthony has finally signed with the Rockets, officially making it Will Melo Come Off the Bench? season in Houston. Despite his open resentment to the idea of being a reserve in Oklahoma City, it’s apparently possible he accepts a lesser role with his new squad.

Via Adrian Wojnarowski:

“Anthony will have a chance to compete for a starting spot in training camp, but could ultimately come off the bench based on what Rockets coach Mike D’Antoni decides is best for the team.”

So Mike D’Antoni may be the one to tell Melo he’s not a starting-caliber player anymore?
