AP source: Thunder’s Anthony to opt in, take $28 million

Oklahoma City Thunder forward Carmelo Anthony plans to opt in and take the $28 million he is due next season. The Thunder traded for Anthony and Paul George to join Russell Westbrook before last season, moves that gave them high hopes of challenging Golden State in the West. In Game 6 of the first-round playoff series against Utah that ended Oklahoma City's season, he played fewer minutes than backup Jerami Grant.
