Carmelo Anthony continues strong preseason for Knicks
New York Knicks forward Carmelo Anthony had 19 points of 7-of-11 shooting while adding 4 rebounds and 2 assists in 25 minutes of preseason action on Monday.
What It Means:
Melo has thrived in head coach Jeff Hornacek's offense, and is averaging 13 points, 3 rebounds and 3 assists in 20.5 minutes per game in the preseason.
Anthony's 21.8 points per game last season were his lowest since the 2004-2005 season, though he still managed a 20.3 player efficiency rating, .530 true shooting percentage and 12.0 percent total rebound rate on the year. If he continues to find his groove in Hornacek's system, he could be in for a big year.
