Carmelo Anthony is eager for the New York Knicks to improve their roster this offseason.

"It's in their court. The ball is in their court," Anthony said. "They have an opportunity, we have an opportunity to do something this offseason. We gotta do something. It's there."

The Knicks will have at least $18 million in cap space this summer.

The Knicks will likely have plenty of competition for free agents this summer; many teams project to have an amount of cap space greater than the Knicks' space due to the rising salary cap.

"It's kind of an even playing field, so you've just got to hit the ground running," Anthony said.

Last offseason, the Knicks signed Robin Lopez, Arron Afflalo, Derrick Williams and Kyle O'Quinn.
