Sports Roundup: Melo Trade, College Basketball

The Takeaway

“New York basketball is back,” said Carmelo Anthony after being traded to the Knicks. The team now has two superstars, and the level of excitement is amazing, says Takeaway sports contributor, Ibrahim Abdul Matin. But will this lead to a winning season? Meanwhile, keep your eyes on Dawn Evans. She is the best player in women’s basketball, a point-guard for James Madison, she is leading in points this year. However, the traditional powers in women’s basketball, Stanford, Duke and UCONN are still major players going into the tournament. BYU which is 26-2 has a fantastic scorer; so watch that team as well.
