Carmelo Anthony keeps showing his talents with the inspired Portland Trail Blazers this season. Melo is confirming that he can still be a good player in the league and he’s been very helpful for Damian Lillard and CJ McCollum. Melo has been just fine this campaign and every now and then, he finds a way to surprise fans and even players.
That was the case of Stephen Curry, who had nothing but good words to say about Melo and his footwork. While the Blazers face the Atlanta Hawks, Melo showed off his best moves, scoring over his defender using his footwork as a master. That played caught the attention of a lot of people, including Stephen Curry.
Melo being Melo.

Steph took to Twitter to praise Melo while explaining there was no travel. He took his time to confirm everything and let people know that Carmelo is just different.
Literally watched this 20 times waiting for the travel. Not there. That boy good! https://t.co/QsdaX8jwfg

Anthony is 36 years old and he keeps delivering. He’s not the player that led the Denver Nuggets or New York Knicks but Melo has demonstrated he can be a role player at this stage of his career. Portland gave him an opportunity and he didn’t miss it.
He keeps increasing his legend and these Blazers can help him compete for that elusive ring he’s been chasing since forever.
