Carmelo Anthony praying he can return to Portland next season: ‘I found a home’

Carmelo Anthony doesn’t have much time left in the league.

The 36-year-old just wrapped up his 17th season in the NBA, after all.

Still, he’s not ready to give up the game just yet. He said after the Portland Trail Blazers’ 131-122 loss to the Los Angeles Lakers on Sunday night, which officially knocked them out of the playoffs, that he expects to “be right back in the fray of things when next season comes.”

Anthony wants that to be with the Blazers, too.

“I pray that it could be Portland,” he said, via The Oregonian.
