On January 22, according to American media reports, the Rockets reached an agreement with the bulls. The Rockets exchanged Anthony and some cash for a protected second round draft right. NBA officials will execute the deal as soon as tomorrow. However, Anthony is likely not to play for the bulls. He will be officially cut by the bulls and become a complete free agent.
This season, Anthony averaged 29.4 minutes and contributed 13.4 points and 5.4 rebounds. After deciding to break up with the Rockets, Anthony has been training alone with private trainers in the past two months to maintain his competitive state.
It is reported that the bulls and Anthony have no intention of cooperation. The bulls are likely to cut Anthony, who will enter the trading market as a complete free agent. Teams such as the Lakers are still Anthony's potential teams.
