ESPN reported that Anthony signed a $2.4 million, one-year deal with the Rockets.
Anthony’s move to the Rockets from the Oklahoma Thunder was a bit of a whirlwind. OKC traded him to the Atlanta Hawks, which placed him on waivers. After clearing waivers, Anthony became a free agent.
Can confirm Carmelo Anthony is in Houston for his physical as the process of signing his 1-year deal with #Rockets is reaching the final stages. Finally. @KPRC2
