MELO GOES TO HOUSTON

Carmelo Anthony has verbally agreed to sign with the Rockets and has informed the team of the decision to sign upon returning from Africa.

Melo reached a buyout with the Atlanta Hawks last week, giving back $2.4 million of his $27.9M salary, but he’ll get back when he puts pen to paper on his reported one-year deal with Houston. The 33-year old forward was traded to the Hawks last month as part of a three-team deal that included point guard Dennis Schroder going to Oklahoma City.

Last season, his first with the Oklahoma City Thunder, Anthony averaged a career-low 16.2 points per game as well as 5.8 rebounds.
