After a tumultuous last few years in attempt to find a team that would cater to Carmelo Anthony’s demands, the thirty-five year old ten-time NBA All-Star and 2013 scoring champion has been granted one more opportunity.
“The non-guaranteed deal will reportedly pay Anthony $14,490 for each day he is on the Blazers’ roster,” according to Bobby Marks at ESPN. “The deal will become fully guaranteed on Jan. 7 if he’s still on the roster.”
Although Melo is one of the most revered players in modern history for his one-on-one capabilities, his old-school style of play, his work ethic, and his off-court activism, he has struggled to find a home.
