Knicks forward Amar’e Stoudemire has committed to NBA World Tour, according to a source.

The planned junket is expected to become official with an announcement early this week.

Stoudemire’s teammate, Carmelo Anthony, said Thursday during a Greenwich Village appearance he is on board.

The six-game, four-continent exhibition could begin next weekend. According to an ESPN.com report yesterday, players are signing contracts that could pay them between $100,000 and $1 million. It stated 14 players have committed contractually, but insurance issues make it a complicated process.

Cal Darden, an Atlanta businessman, is staging the tour that would include Kobe Bryant, LeBron James, Dwyane Wade and NBA MVP Derrick Rose. The tour is scheduled to begin Oct. 30 in Puerto Rico. Also on tap are two games in London, one in Macau and two games in Australia.

Last night, Anthony and Stoudemire were in Oklahoma City, playing in a charity game put on by the Thunder’s Kevin Durant.
