The New York Knicks have acquired Carmelo Anthony, league sources told ESPN The Magazine’s senior writer Chris Broussard on Monday night.
League sources also told Broussard that none of the teams can officially confirm the deal until Tuesday.
The swap is a three-way deal including Minnesota, a league source told Broussard.
As a part of the deal, the Knicks will send Wilson Chandler, Raymond Felton, Danilo Gallinari, Timofey Mozgov, and a 2014 first-round draft pick to the Nuggets, who would get additional picks and cash, league sources told Broussard. Along with Anthony, New York would acquire Chauncey Billups, Shelden Williams, Anthony Carter and Renaldo Balkman, the sources said.
New York will send Anthony Randolph and Eddy Curry to Minnesota as part of the deal in exchange for Corey Brewer, a league source told Broussard.
The Denver Post first reported the news.

Who cares ? And melodrama is one word, not two.
You’re an idiot. She wrote Melo drama for Carmelo as his nickname is Melo. Get educated before you start making a fool of yourself. Moron.
