3 teams that should avoid signing Carmelo Anthony

#1 Boston Celtics

The Boston Celtics already have a number of underperforming players on their roster

With the Los Angeles Lakers seemingly pausing their pursuit of Anthony, the Boston Celtics have emerged as one of the new frontrunners to sign the veteran until the end of the season.

Due to the Celtics' recent struggles, Melo has continually been linked to the team over the weeks, and the Boston Globe has even suggested that Anthony could help save the team's season.

Nevertheless, the addition of Anthony to a Celtics team that is already struggling to find its identity has all the signs of a disappointing outcome.

Melo is not only unlikely to get the minutes that he craves due to the Celtics' depth, but his addition could also negatively impact Gordon Hayward's recent revival in form.

Ultimately, it is hard to see any positives in the Celtics adding Anthony this season, and the team should instead focus on finding cohesion on the court ahead of a potentially lengthy playoff run.
