Carmelo Anthony was recently interviewed by SNY about a potential return to his former New York Knicks. Anthony said with a smile "I have to see what's going on." Carmelo Anthony is currently 34 years old and use to play with the Knicks from 2010-2017. Anthony is currently 7th in All-Time leading scorers in the Knicks Franchise.
Anthony didn't give a definite yes or no on if he'll resign and it makes sense. At 34 years old, Melo should be hesitant on who he signs with next season. Melo should only consider going to a Finals contender to help him win his first Championship.
Carmelo Anthony is no where near the superstar he use to be with the Knicks, but he can still provide valuable minutes and potential 6 man scoring options for the Knicks or whoever signs him. Melo is still in the gym training, as videos are coming out of him still training.
Carmelo Anthony only played 10 games last season with the Rockets before he was benched until the trade deadline. From there Melo was traded to the Bulls and bought out, no one signed him but the Lakers were close to it. The only reason why the Lakers didn't sign Melo was because of the fact they aren't going to make the playoffs.
The Knicks would be Melo's top priority if they signed Kyrie Irving, and Kevin Durant this offseason. If that happens then Melo could be a very valuable 6th man to this team and reunite with the Knicks. Melo is a native New Yorker and did attend college in Syracuse, it would be fitting if Carmelo could end his career in New York.
