La La Anthony: Carmelo would prefer to remain close to son

Carmelo Anthony's wife, La La Anthony, said on the Wendy Williams show that the New York Knicks star's top priority going forward is to remain close to his son, Kiyan.

Phil Jackson has made it clear that his preference is to trade Anthony this offseason. Jackson said recently that Anthony indicated that he'd prefer to stay in New York. Anthony has a no-trade clause and would have to agree to waive it prior to the completion of any trade.

"The most important thing with that is just to stay close to Kiyan," La La Anthony said in a Tuesday interview.
