Carmelo Anthony would accept a trade to one of three teams, report says

Carmelo Anthony’s list of suitable trade destinations has grown.

Anthony has made it known waive his no-trade clause and accept a trade from New York to the Houston Rockets. And on Friday added the Cleveland Cavaliers and at least one more unknown team, according to ESPN.com.

Anthony, who averaged 22.4 points and 5.9 rebounds per game in 2016-17, has only worked out privately, opting to skip team practices. Earlier reports say Anthony is "cautiously optimistic" a deal with the Rockets will be reached by Monday.

Signals from the Knicks front office have been mixed. Knicks president Steve Mills said he expects Carmelo Anthony to be with the Knicks when training camp starts next week, but GM Scott Perry made no mention of the 10-time All-Star in an open letter to fans Thursday, instead opting to focus on the team’s “young core of Kristaps Porzingis, Tim Hardaway Jr., Willy Hernangómez, Frank Ntilikina and Ron Baker.”
