Anthony renewed his contract with a basic salary of $2.65 million a year, and continued to work hard in Portland. "Melon" also exposed a set of training photos on the Internet. As can be seen from the photos, the 36-year-old player is still proud of his body and is preparing for the new season.
Last season, Anthony joined the Trailblazers halfway, and initially only signed a short-term unsecured contract. However, with his outstanding performance after his return, he quickly turned the contract into a one-year formal contract. Wearing the blazers' jerseys, "Melon" played 58 games, averaging 32.8 minutes and 15.4 points and 6.3 rebounds, which successfully helped Portland enter the playoffs.
After the end of the season, Anthony's contract expires. Both he and the Trailblazers expressed their intention to continue cooperation, but they did not rule out other possibilities. For example, his former owner, the Knicks, made many overtures and hoped Anthony could return to new york. But at the end of his career, "Melon" was actually more suitable for competing teams, so he chose to stay in the Trailblazers.
Now, Anthony has played in the NBA for 17 years, played 1122 games and scored 26446 points, ranking 15th in the history scoring list. During this period, he won a scoring champion, averaging more than 2 points for 14 consecutive seasons, being selected as an All-Star for 1 times, and being selected as the best team of the year for 6 times (2 seconds, 4 points). It can be said that he locked a seat in the future hall of fame early.
There is no doubt that our fans are happy to continue to see Anthony on the court. He and lebron james were the only "Platinum Generation" representatives who continued to fight in 23. Although they haven't won the championship so far, they have been criticized for playing ball. But at the age of 36, this love and persistence in basketball is worthy of respect. Let's bless "Melon" and look forward to his better performance in the new season. Welcome friends to leave comments and let's communicate together!
