By all accounts, Anthony is an incredibly unselfish young man off the court, and he certainly plays like that on the court. By and large, that's a good thing, but I think he's going to need to look to score more as the schedule ramps up in 2020.
In my opinion, he needs to be at the free throw line 6-8 times per game. Right now he's averaging 4.75 trips, but that number has steadily fallen. He was close to 7 per game after Maui, but he hasn't been to the line more than 4 times in a game since. He's settling for too many step-back, James Harden-esque 3-point shots. I know he wants that on film for the scouts, but his team needs him getting to the basket, scoring, and forcing the other team to foul.
Thoughts?
