If the Suns are able to sign Anthony, he will join All-Star guard Chris Paul and MVP candidate Devin Booker on the team. Anthony would also get to play alongside rising stars Deandre Ayton and Mikal Bridges.
Anthony’s peers, including four-time NBA Champion Andre Iguodala, continue to hold him in high regard.
“Most of the guys that I came in with who are still around. LeBron is one of them. Carmelo Anthony is really good & to see him playing back in the league; you know I felt for him because of the type of person that he is and how the players really respect him,” per Robinson.
