Carmelo Anthony Not Sure Where He Might End Up In Trade

Carmelo Anthony is still a member of the Denver Nuggets, and with less than a month to go until the NBA’s Trade Deadline, he is more uncertain than ever about what the future may hold. It looked like he may have been headed to the New Jersey Nets, but that possibility evaporated when Nets owner Mikhail Prokhorov pulled his team out of the sweepstakes.

Now, Anthony doesn’t know where he’ll end up. He admitted as much in an interview with Benjamin Hochman of the Denver Post.

Today I caught up with , and for the first time, I really felt a sense of uncertainty from the guy.

Asked where he thought he'd be traded, the Nuggets all-star said, "At this point, I really don't know.

Anthony said the only teams he’d consider signing a long-term extension for are the Knicks, Bulls, Nuggets and, yes, the Nets, but he also said he has no idea because other teams could trade for him anyway. He said that he was “screwed,” in that he could go to a team that is not one of the four he listed.

Anthony also said that he hasn’t had much dialogue with Nuggets general manager Masai Ujiri in quite some time.

Asked what's going to happen next, Melo said, "I haven't had any dialogue with (team executive) Masai (Ujiri) or anybody like that. Usually I talk to Masai, but a lot of stuff has died down. I'm pretty sure they've been behind closed doors, doing what they do. But I haven't talked to them personally."
