Armed with a hope that Carmelo Anthony will eventually waive his no-trade clause, the New York Knicks have reached out to the Boston Celtics, Los Angeles Clippers and Cleveland Cavaliers to probe their interest in a trade, league sources told The Vertical.
Knicks president Phil Jackson is determined to find a destination and deal that Anthony would agree to accept before the Feb. 23 NBA trade deadline, league sources said.
If the Knicks are truly desperate there are a few teams that’ll trade quality role players and draft picks for Melo. If they’re hoping to land a top-tier All-Star in exchange for Anthony’s services then expect to see Melo in blue & orange for the remainder of the season.
