1. Dallas Mavericks

Dallas has been mentioned as a potential destinations for Anthony, but they haven’t been one of the teams in the forefront of the discussions. Mark Cuban has made it clear that he is looking to add another star to the mix, and he also knows that Dirk Nowitzki simply doesn’t have much time left.

Anthony would give Dallas their future franchise player, and he would be able to step in and become the No. 1 option with both Monta Ellis and Nowitzki complimenting him. There could be an issue with Ellis and Anthony both wanting the basketball in their hands, but Rick Carlisle could work with them and get them both to buy into the system.
