ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski dropped one of his classic “Woj Bombs” Saturday morning regarding power forward Carmelo Anthony and his trade destination.
After giving the New York Knicks a list of teams he would waive his no-trade clause for on Friday, Anthony is reportedly on his way to Oklahoma City and is expected to be at training camp Tuesday.
New York has agreed to a deal to send Carmelo Anthony to OKC for Enes Kanter, Doug McDermott and a draft pick, league sources tell ESPN.

OKC acquired Paul George and Carmelo Anthony for Victor Oladipo and Enes Kanter’s awful contracts, plus Sabonis. Who cares about fit???

Kanter released a statement about his love for OKC and the organization … 4 days later he got traded. Stay woke, it's a business.

OKC is really going to finish the offseason with Paul George and Carmelo Anthony after giving up Oladipo, Kanter, Sabonis and McDermott.

It won’t take long to see how the two teams mesh following the acquisition since they open up the 2017-2018 season against each other in OKC on Oct. 19.
