Carmelo Anthony joined the Portland Trail Blazers for their 2019-2020 campaign after an entire year out of the NBA, adding a needed veteran presence on the court. John Schuhmann of NBA.com has Anthony on his list of “most intriguing” free agents during this offseason. Schuhmann notes that Anthony showed flashes of excellence yet lacked efficiency, even when playing alongside Portland’s best players.
Anthony had his moments with the Blazers after a full year out of the league. But, even playing alongside Damian Lillard and CJ McCollum, he wasn’t very efficient in his role.
