New York Knicks forward Carmelo Anthony says that he would take a pay cut to stay with the New York Knicks if it meant that the team would be competitive.

Carmelo Anthony has said that he would take a pay cut to remain with the New York Knicks.

The forward is due to become a free agent at the end of the season, and has previously suggested that he may look to move on.

However, the 29-year-old told reporters: "Without a doubt. Any opportunity I have to build that up in New York, I'd do it.

"I told people all the time, always say, 'If it takes me taking a pay cut, I'll be the first one on [Knicks owner] Mr [James] Dolan's steps saying take my money and let's build something strong over here'. As far as the money, it don't really matter to me.

"If I go somewhere else, I get paid. If I stay in New York, I get paid. As far as the money goes, it's not my concern. My concern is to be able to compete on a high level, a championship level, coming in this last stretch of my career."

Anthony, who is the team's leading point scorer this season, will feature in tomorrow's All-Star game.
