Carmelo Anthony still focused on signing with the Rockets

Carmelo Anthony does not want to swap places with Kyrie Irving.

On Friday, ESPN’s Brian Windhorst reported that Kyrie Irving asked the Cleveland Cavaliers to trade him last week.

Irving listed the Spurs, Wolves, Knicks and Heat as his preferred destinations. Although, any team with an open point guard position will likely pursue Irving.

The Knicks want to send Carmelo Anthony and future first-round picks to Cleveland for Irving, according to ESPN’s Ian Begley.

Sure, Irving listed four preferred trade destinations to Cleveland’s front office, but he doesn’t have a no-trade clause in his contract like Carmelo.
