Since last summer, Carmelo Anthony did not find a place in the NBA. However, the winger had just had an interesting season in the doldrums of the Los Angeles Lakers. But his defensive shortcomings probably scared away his suitors. But one man might relaunch his career: Kevin Durant.
Freshly landed at the Phoenix Suns, the ex-Brooklyn Nets player spoke regarding Melo’s situation. And just one sentence, the 34-year-old superstar drove the rumors crazy…
“I think he still has the talent to play in our League”, told Kevin Durant to Brandon “Scoop B” Robinson.
Of course, such an outing immediately fueled the idea of Anthony’s arrival in Phoenix. On paper, the Suns, following the departures of Mikal Bridges, Cameron Johnson and of Jae Crowderneed to recruit to strengthen the bench.
With a specific role and limited minutes, Carmelo Anthony can still bring to the NBA. But can he really do it in a project to aim for the title of champion? Especially following a long period of inactivity?
On the other hand, the 38-year-old veteran would probably have no problem adapting to Phoenix. Besides Kevin Durant, the former New York Knicks element also has a strong connection to Chris Paul.
