With Trade Rumors Swirling, Anthony Expects to Meet With Nuggets Brass

Filed under: , , ,



DENVER -- Denver star forward Carmelo Anthony expects to meet soon with team management. At that point, more will be known on when or whether he could be traded to New Jersey.

"I'm waiting to see Masai (Ujiri, Denver's vice president of basketball operations) and Josh (Kroenke, the team president), wherever they're at,'' Anthony said after practice Monday about the two Denver executives who were not at Sunday's 96-87 home loss to New Orleans.

"I'm pretty sure they're working on whatever they're working on right now. ... I'm just patiently waiting until they get back so I have a sitdown with them.''

Whether Anthony agrees to sign a contract extension with New Jersey is the most significant obstacle on whether he will be traded to the Nets in a three-team deal that also would include Detroit. Anthony said the choice of whether or not he would sign to stay long-term with the Nets has yet to be presented to him, and he wouldn't tip his hand on his thinking.

"I really don't know,'' Anthony said, later adding, "After the meeting, I'll let you know how the meeting went.''

Anthony said no meeting is scheduled as of yet. Ujiri did not immediately return a message.

Sources said Monday no trade is imminent. Anthony is expecting to play Tuesday for the Nuggets at home against Phoenix.
