Anthony will join the Blazers on upcoming road trip, per source. Power forward was the position that Blazers were most vulnerable and injury to Zach Collins only amplified void there. ‘Melo comes for a specific role and need.

Anthony, who hasn’t played since Nov. 2018, has struggled to find a landing spot for a little bit now. Theoretically, he last played for the Chicago Bulls after the team received the 35-year-old in a trade with the Houston Rockets in January, but Chicago made clear right away that they had acquired Anthony with the intention of waiving him. Anthony played just 10 games (staring in two) for the Rockets, but it was clear it wasn’t a good fit.
Will this be his second (or third, or fourth…) wind? Only time will tell.
