--Carmelo Anthony's expected path to the Houston Rockets is nearly complete
after a three-team deal that sends him to the Atlanta Hawks was finalized.

The framework for the complex deal that involves the Oklahoma City Thunder and
Philadelphia 76ers was put in place last week.

Sources told The New York Times that the Hawks will release Anthony. By doing
so, Anthony will earn the $27.9 million due to him next season under his
existing contract. He can then sign what is expected to be a one-year contract
for the veteran's minimum of $2.4 million.

--Jonah Bolden signed with the Philadelphia 76ers, the team that drafted him
in 2017.

Bolden signed a four-year, $7 million contract.

The 76ers selected Bolden, who hails from Australia, with the No. 36 overall
pick in the 2017 NBA Draft. Prior to the draft, Bolden played for Serbia's KK
FMP, averaging 12.6 points and 7.0 rebounds. He spent the 2015-16 season at
UCLA.
