3&D. Danny Green type with more muscle.
I'm down.

@bobbykaralla: Opponents shot 30-of-109 against Anderson last season, per Synergy, and turned it over 15.2 percent of the time. Lockdown.

So your saying Harden will have 14+ turnovers when Anderson guards him.

Agreed. He's killing it. Gives me reason to come back to the boards. The "trolls" were too much for me for awhile.

“I want to be able to be that guy that does it all,” Anderson said. “It’s a new wave of players that’s doing that at a high level; [Golden State’s] Klay Thompson, Jimmy Butler, Kawhi Leonard...those guys can guard multiple positions but knock down open jumpers and get better on the offensive end as the years go on.”
Anderson was among those to post impressive numbers at the pre-draft combine in the physical testing portion of the week.
Along with having just five percent body fat, his wing span measured 7-feet.
His time of 2.88 seconds in the shuttle run (it tests your agility and ability to change direction) was fourth-best among those tested.
And his 43-inch max vertical leap was second only to Arlington, Mass., native and former Notre Dame guard Pat Connaughton, whose vertical leap at the pre-draft combine was 44 inches (he, too, is expected to work out for the Celtics prior to the NBA draft).

I'm starting to like this pick a lot. A complementary piece but an important one.

I'd love to see Connaughton fall to the Mavs in the 2nd. Get two of the most athletic guys in the draft.

@BallinWithBryan: Justin Anderson just spoke with the local media just now. He’s incredibly excited to be working with Dirk and Carlisle. Will be added to QB.
@BallinWithBryan: One tidbit: Anderson shared that the Mavs, when Dirk and Nash were rolling, were his favorite team growing up.

7-2, 290... Could this be another out-of-nowhere Jerry Jones pick?

This is a Spurs move getting a 3-D guy who can fit a system.
I like it a lot. Now we just need a system

I like this pick although other interesting options would have been available.
I see a lot of Kawhi Leonard in him.

Anderson was in the middle of an ACC Player of the Year season when he broke his hand, then underwent an appendectomy, causing him to miss the last eight games of the regular season. At that time, he was killing it from 3-point range at .482. Despite missing so many games down the stretch, he was a finalist for the Julius Erving Award and also earned second-team All-ACC honors. He was a big reason Virginia won the ACC regular-season championship for the second consecutive year.
Key statistics: 12.2 ppg, 4.0 rpg, 1.7 apg, 1.2 tpg, 27.8 mpg, .466 FG, .452 3PT, .780 FT
Cool statistic: Anderson set career highs in scoring, 3-point percentage and minutes played in his final season at Virginia.
What Insiders Say
Virginia coach Tony Bennett
“He’s worked hard on his game, and has earned this opportunity to realize his life-long dream of playing in the NBA. He helped us win a lot of games.”
What Outsiders Say
Michigan State coach Tom Izzo
“Anderson, if you watch him before he got hurt, I think was playing at a whole other level.”
David Aldridge's Big Board 2015: Shooting Guards: | Rank: No. 7
TNT Analyst David Aldridge breaks down the top prospects at each position
Anderson's energy and ability to guard multiple positions are big pluses. At 228 pounds, he's not getting pushed around.
"He's a good player and he's going to have a chance to be a good pro," said a coach whose team has played against Anderson. "Very athletic, explosive. I disregard (his numbers) when he came back from the hand. Before that, he was playing at a very high level

He improved his 3-point shot from 29% to 45% in the last two years, so he seems fully capable of improving his mechanics.

I like him after watching some of his highlights on youtube. Looks like a 3 & D guy. Who needs Green when we got JD!
Here is a video to his NBA draft party. Happy for the kid and really hope he pans out!

Wonder how many draft picks this year have this kind of composure.... Hell I wonder how many NBA players have this kind of composure considering it's eerily similar to Dellavablowya and Gibson and Gibson ended up kicking Delly and got himself ejected.

Pavel Podkolzin 2.0. Not in a good way. I seriously doubt he ever plays meaningful NBA minutes.
Seems like something of a publicity stunt by Cubes.
