95 overall prospect in the 247Sports class of 2022 rankings, Anderson signed with Arizona over numerous suitors. He played in 15 games as a true freshman and redshirted during the 2023-24 season. Boise State reportedly beat out Creighton, Texas and Washington to land Anderson last spring.
He started 11 games for the Broncos at the beginning of the 2024-25 season but was passed on the depth chart by fellow sophomore Emmanuel Ugbo, who recently transferred to Washington State. Anderson will have two seasons of eligibility remaining with Murray State. The Racers finished 16-17 overall last season and placed seventh in the Missouri Valley Conference.
