Carmelo Anthony is one of the hottest names in the NBA right now, especially with his upcoming free agency this offseason. He still has the option to opt into his deal with the New York Knicks, but that doesn’t appear to be of interest to him at this point in time.

There are quite a few teams lining up to pursue him, but there are teams that have obvious advantages over others. As of right now, the most talked about teams are the Chicago Bulls, New York Knicks, and Houston Rockets, but there are three other “darkhorse” teams that could make a move for him.
