Anthony was sidelined for more than a calendar year before officially signing a non-guaranteed contract with the Trailblazers.
With Anthony being out for so long, the expectations for him were quite low. However, the Trailblazers hoped that he could provide just a minor spark for their organization.
Anthony has rose above the expectations that fans had for him as he had an impressive performance last night in a victory against the Chicago Bulls, securing 23 points, 11 rebounds, and 4 assists on 8-of-16 shooting.
