Dud Small Forward –  Carmelo Anthony

Team: New York Knicks

ADP: 30.4

Pre-Season Ranking: 33

Current Ranking: 85

I think it’s time to remove the “superstar” tag from Carmelo Anthony (if it hasn’t been already). ‘Melo is a great player still, even a star player, but his production no longer matches his reputation.

For his owners that spent a top 35 pick on him, good luck convincing yourself that was a worthwhile pick when his only valuable contribution is in the points section.
