HOUSTON, USA – Carmelo Anthony, who is coming off the lowest scoring season of his career, signed a one-year contract with the Houston Rockets on Monday, August 13.
The deal is worth a reported $2.4 million and means the former all-star forward will be joining his fourth NBA team in just over a year.
The Rockets announced the move by posting a photo on Twitter of Anthony signing the contract.
The 34-year-old Anthony averaged a career low 16.2 points in 78 games last season with the Oklahoma City Thunder.

Anthony joins a team led by MVP James Harden and star point guard Chris Paul and is expected to play a bench role for the Rockets.
The third overall pick in the 2003 draft has averaged 24.1 points and 3 assists in a 15-year career that also included stints with the Denver Nuggets and the New York Knicks.
A 10-time all-star, Anthony has won 3 Olympic gold medals with the United States. He is USA Basketball’s all-time leading scorer and rebounder. – Rappler.com
