Carmelo Anthony turns in all-around effort as Thunder take Game 1
Oklahoma City Thunder forward Carmelo Anthony scored 15 points (5-of-13 field goals, 3-of-4 free throws) with 7 rebounds, 2 assists, 3 steals, 2 blocks, 2 3-pointers, and 3 turnovers in Sunday's 116-108 Game 1 win over the Utah Jazz.
What It Means:
Anthony only recorded multiple steals and blocks in the same game twice during the regular season and they were both during the 2017 portion of the calendar year. He went 2-for-7 from beyond the arc and will look to improve from the field in Game 2 on Wednesday.
Melo scored 38.4 FanDuel points in Game 1, beating out numberFire's projection of 28.9 FanDuel points.
