Nuggets coach George Karl said he will talk this weekend in Sacramento to forward Carmelo Anthony, who has been struggling of late.
"You go in and open the door and see where it goes," Karl said of what the conversation might entail before the Nuggets face the Kings on Sunday afternoon.
Anthony continues to lead the NBA in scoring with a 29.9 average, but he called his play "terrible" in the second half of Friday's 95-82 loss to Detroit. After scoring just 17 points against the Pistons, Anthony's average dropped under 30 for the first time since games entering Nov. 14.
"He's had a heavy year and the fantastic thing in the NBA is you can shake it off in about a week," Karl said of Anthony. "All you got to do is go out and keep working hard and keep focusing and playing hard."
"He's too talented not to break out of it. It's like a baseball hitter. They all go into slumps, but they’re not very far from going 4-of-4."
