“It’s Melo time!”

Elite scorer Carmelo Anthony is all set for his return to the NBA after getting called up by the struggling Portland Trail Blazers and has already secured a deal, according to Adrian Wojnarowski of the ESPN.

After the roller coaster of free agency, offseason and preseason, Melo is off to revive all of it and start a new campaign to his NBA career.

Despite his absence in the NBA, Melo still put on the work with his long-time trainers and continued to get in shape, including workouts with NBA stars Trae Young, Tyson Chandler, Chris Paul, Paul George, and James Harden

Inactive in the league for almost a year now, the Damian Lillard-led squad called the services of the six-time ALL-NBA star in hopes to add firepower and depth to their (so far) mediocre season.

In the 12 games the Trailblazers played, the team has lost 8 including the recent back to back losses.

With Melo’s addition, the team is expecting leadership, veteran smarts, and additional scoring to help them get back on the winning track.
