Lillard, McCollum trying to sell Melo on Portland

Two member of the Portland Trail Blazers say they've reached out to Carmelo Anthony in an attempt to sell the New York Knicks star on their team.

All-Star Damian Lillard and teammate CJ McCollum, speaking Wednesday at the former's basketball camp, said Anthony sounded intrigued by the idea.

"I think he's interested," McCollum reportedly said.

ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski reported over the weekend that Anthony, a 10-time All-Star, still is counting on the Knicks to carry out their previously agreed upon mandate to trade him to the Houston Rockets.
