Carmelo Anthony could soon be a Houston Rocket

We’ve all been waiting for several weeks now for the other shoe to drop and Carmelo Anthony’s situation with the Oklahoma City Thunder to resolve itself so that he could become a free agent and be available to play for the Houston Rockets.

Well, we’re one step close to that reality as Adrian Wojnarowski reported that the Thunder are trading Anthony to the Atlanta Hawks for Dennis Schroder and Mike Muscala. The Thunder will also include a 2022 protected first-round pick.

The Thunder will then flip Muscala over to the Philadelphia 76ers in exchange for Timothe Luwawu-Cabarrot, the 76ers will send Justin Anderson to the Hawks, and the final piece of the puzzle is that Carmelo Anthony will have his $27.
