Carmelo Anthony to attend Team USA minicamp

Carmelo Anthony has informed US Olympic Team officials he will attend the Aug. 11-13 minicamp as the team gears up for the 2016 Summer Games in Rio de Janeiro.

Anthony is still rehabbing from February’s left-knee surgery, so he will not be a fully active participant, according to a source.

Team USA CEO Jerry Colangelo has encouraged roster members to come to the minicamp even if they can’t play due to injury.
