Celtics reportedly not expected to sign Carmelo Anthony – at least for now
Carmelo Anthony is one of the biggest names available on the free-agent market.When it was announced that forward Danilo Gallinari tore his ACL before even playing a game with the Celtics, veteran free agent Carmelo Anthony was viewed as a potential replacement.
The 10-time All-Star doesn’t appear to be an option for Boston, at least for now. The Celtics “are not expected to have interest” in signing Anthony ahead of training camp, MassLive’s Brian Robb reported. However, Robb noted that he “could see” the Celtics inquiring Anthony about a deal later in the season if they feel like they need his skill set.
