Report: Thunder, Carmelo Anthony to part ways this summer

The Thunder appears to be inching closer to a split with Carmelo Anthony.

Anthony is due $27.9 million this upcoming season, but is reportedly headed for an exit from Oklahoma City via either a buyout or stretch provision, the stretch provision itself or a possible trade, according to a report from ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski and Royce Young.

Anthony has a no-trade clause which carried over from his five-year contract with the Knicks. He can veto any trade, but teams may be intrigued with taking on his salary in the hope of clearing salary cap space in 2019.
