Carmelo Anthony has been named the Eastern Conference Player of The Month for January, the NBA announced. Anthony led the East with 28.7 points per game, including a 62 point performance against the Bobcats that set the Knicks’ single-game record. Melo’s squad went 10-6 in January, and his solid play was a big reason why. Kevin Durant, of course, won the award in the West.
