Carmelo Anthony looks like he is headed back to New York. Frank Isola of New York Daily News broke the news.
Carmelo Anthony is prepared to spend the prime years of his career in New York, the Daily News has learned.
A person close to Anthony told The News on Wednesday that barring a last minute change of heart Anthony will re-sign with the Knicks after “agonizing over this” for the past week.
“He will have something for everybody on Thursday,” said the friend who was with Anthony before Anthony’s scheduled workout with Kevin Durant and Kevin Love in Los Angeles on Wednesday. “He is really torn because this is the biggest decision of his career. But he wants to get it done in New York. He told me he believes in Phil.”
The nine-time All-Star and former scoring champion will be returning home to New York and dawning the blue and orange once again. Carmelo Anthony reportedly will be the center-piece in Phil Jackson’s master plan in New York. The Knicks seem to be coming back together but this time the Zen Master is at the helm and he will be sure to bring in Phil Jackson followers, execute that triangle offense and do all he can to bring a ring to New York.
