Anderson had 20 points (7-11 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 3-3 FT), two rebounds and one assist in 24 minutes against the Pacers on Tuesday.
Anderson got off the schneid with his second best scoring output of the season. He had the hot hand from three-point land and it was hard to take him out. I wouldn't bet on this happening consistently down the stretch though, as he's best left on the wire until he can get some consistent minutes.

Anderson scored 13 points (6-10 FG, 1-4 3Pt) with three rebounds and a steal in 25 minutes off the bench Wednesday.
Thaddeus Young left Wednesday's game with a knee injury, and if it proves to be serious Anderson could see an uptick in his court time. He'll still likely only have fantasy value in deeper leagues, however.

Anderson (back) made it through Friday's practice and believes that he'll be able to play in Saturday's game against the 76ers, Newsday reports.
Anderson suffered a bruised tailbone earlier in the week and has been off the court since Tuesday. His optimism after Friday's practice is a good sign for his availability against the 76ers, although he'll have to make it through Saturday's pregame rituals before he's officially listed as active.
Wed Mar 11 201518:49Anderson (back) ruled out for Wednesday's game against Heat
Anderson (back) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Heat, Mike Mazzeo of ESPN reports.
As expected, Anderson will not play after leaving Tuesday's game with a lower-back bruise. Markel Brown (ankle), who was also listed as doubtful coming in, will play, however.

Anderson (hip) is listed as doubtful for Wednesday's game against the Heat.
Anderson left Tuesday's game with a lower-back bruise, finishing with three points and an assist in 10 minutes. With Markel Brown (ankle) unlikely to play and Sergey Karasev (knee) ruled out, the Nets will be shorthanded in the backcourt Wednesday. Jarrett Jack and Bojan Bogdanovic are the most likely candidates to start in the backcourt alongside Deron Williams.

Anderson suffered a bruised tailbone during Tuesday's game and will miss the rest of the game, Alex Raskin of the WSJ reports.
Anderson had three points and an assist in ten minutes before exiting Tuesday's game. The impact of Anderson's absence is compounded by Markel Brown's apparent ankle injury in the third quarter. It's unclear whether Anderson will miss any time beyond Tuesday's game.
Sun Mar 8 201516:38Anderson will move to bench for Sunday's game against Jazz
Anderson will move to the bench for Sunday's game against the Jazz, the New York Post reports.
Anderson is getting pushed to the sidelines as Thaddeus Young moves into the starting lineup for the first time this season. Time will tell, but Anderson may ultimately be confined to the bench for the rest of the season unless coach Lionel Hollins decides otherwise.

Anderson started and played 28 minutes during Tuesday's loss to the Grizzlies, finishing with 15 points (5-9 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 3-4 FT), four rebounds and a steal.
Anderson continues to be inconsistent, as it seems he has a few down games after every productive outing. He's also played anywhere between 21 minutes and 40 minutes over his last four games, so with so much inconsistency, it's hard to see him having a ton of fantasy value. If you're in deeper leagues continue to keep an eye on him though, as long as he's in the starting lineup.
Sun Feb 8 201500:31Anderson remained in starting lineup Saturday, but only managed ...
Anderson remained in the starting lineup Saturday, but only managed three points on 1-of-7 shooting over 21 minutes on the floor. He added three rebounds and a steal in the contest.
Anderson's 22-point outing against Toronto is looking more and more like an aberration as that was the only time he's scored in double figures in his last five games. He's not producing enough right now, even with his decent amount of playing time, to be a viable part of your lineup.
Wed Feb 4 201523:18Anderson scored season-high 22 points (7-9 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 5-5 FT) ...
Anderson scored a season-high 22 points (7-9 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 5-5 FT) with five rebounds and a steal in 33 minutes during Wednesday's win over the Raptors.
With Deron Williams back in the lineup and Jarrett Jack still playing well, Anderson picked a great time to have his best game of the season and stake a claim to keeping his spot in the Nets' rotation. Don't be surprised if he gets bumped back to the bench, or begins to lose significant minutes, in the near future however.
Fri Jan 30 201518:23Anderson will continue to start against Raptors on Friday
Anderson will continue to start against the Raptors on Friday, Mike Mazzeo of ESPN reports.
Anderson scored 15 points during his start against the Hawks on Wednesday. Perhaps more importantly, he played for 36 minutes and is in position to maintain the starting spot moving forward.

Anderson got the start on Wednesday, scoring 15 points (5-10 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 3-3 Ft) with six assists, two rebounds and a steal in 36 minutes during a loss to the Hawks.
The Nets' wing rotation is in flux at the moment due to the health issues that ended Mirza Teletovic's season, and Anderson could potentially acquire some decent fantasy value if he can remain in the starting lineup. Wait to see what coach Lionel Hollins has in store on Friday against the Raptors before you think about plucking Anderson off your waiver wire, however.
Wed Jan 28 201519:25Anderson will enter starting five Wednesday in Atlanta
Anderson will enter the starting five Wednesday in Atlanta, the New York Post reports.
Anderson will swap with Bojan Bogdanovic at shooting guard, where he's made one start this season. In three total nods, Anderson has averaged 7.3 points, five rebounds, one steal, and one three-pointer in 28 minutes.
Thu Jan 22 201502:29Anderson put up 14 points, five rebounds, two assists, and one s...
Anderson put up 14 points, five rebounds, two assists, and one steal in 29 minutes off the bench Wednesday.
Anderson has played at least 24 minutes in each of his last four games, but Wednesday was the first time he scored in double figures during that stretch. And that pretty much tells the story. Anderson would need an expanded role and minutes to be of use in standard leagues. As things stand, he's only of use in deeper leagues at this time.
Tue Dec 9 201413:56Anderson will make second straight start Wednesday against Bulls
Anderson will make his second straight start Wednesday against the Bulls, Rod Boone of Newsday reports.
With Joe Johnson (illness) already ruled out for Wednesday's contest, Anderson will get another start on the wing. He played 32 minutes against the Cavs on Monday but finished with only six points and five rebounds.

Anderson scored six points (3-7 FG, 0-3 3Pt) to go along with five rebounds and two steals in 32 minutes Monday against the Cavaliers.
Anderson started for Joe Johnson (illness), but didn't perform very well. Expect him to return to his bench role once Johnson returns.
Mon Dec 8 201417:51Anderson will get start at shooting guard in place of Joe Johnso...
Anderson will get the start at shooting guard in place of Joe Johnson on Tuesday against the Cavaliers, Tim Bontemps of the New York Post reports.
With Johnson out with a stomach virus, Anderson will move into the starting lineup, joining Deron Williams in the backcourt. Brooklyn is going small against the Cavs, starting Kevin Garnett at center and Mirza Teletovic at power forward.

Anderson played 25 minutes off the bench Friday but only contributed four points (2-3 FG, 0-1 3Pt), three rebounds, and three assists against the Thunder.
Anderson has played in all 12 games for the Nets this season but hasn't been able to amount much production as he's averaging just 18.3 minutes on the court. As of right now, the 32-year-old is averaging 4.3 points, 2.0 rebounds, 0.7 assists, 0.3 steals, and 0.2 blocks per game.
Mon Oct 20 201416:46Anderson has played in each of Nets' last two preseason games
Anderson has played in each of the Nets' last two preseason games.
Anderson was dealing with an abdomen issue earlier in the preseason that caused him to miss a few games and several practices. He played Wednesday against Sacramento (12 minutes) and Friday against Boston (21 minutes) and appears poised to begin the regular season at full strength.
Mon Oct 13 201414:12Anderson (abdomen) will likely start season coming off bench
Anderson (abdomen) will likely start the season coming off the bench, if he's healthy enough to do so, the New York Post's Tim Bontemps reports.
Bojan Bogdanovic will be the team's starting shooting guard, it seems, as Anderson hasn't been healthy enough to stake a claim to the job. This will hinder his fantasy value out of the gate, especially if he remains banged up when the season starts.
