Portland Trail Blazers power forward and NBA legend Carmelo Anthony, is a free agent now, and has significant interest from the Los Angeles Lakers, according to Bleacher Report.
After signing consecutive one-year deals for the Blazers, where he provided above-average production on the veteran’s minimum, Melo is a free agent again. After both last season, and this season, Melo’s three-point shooting and clutch shot-making has meant his market has been bigger than the veteran’s minimum. Last season, he decided to take less than the minimum to come back and help the Blazers, but this season, he may choose another route.
