Cal in the NBA: Ryan Anderson shining with Rockets, Jaylen Brown with rookie spark

Cal currently has three NBA players in the league, with all of them earning regular rotation minutes. Let’s take a quick peak

Ryan Anderson, Houston Rockets: 14 points, 5 rebounds per game, 43% FG-41% 3Pt-89% FT, 14+ PER in 30 minutes a game

After several productive years in New Orleans flourishing as a stretch forward with Anthony Davis, Anderson has found solid footing among a Houston squad flourishing with MVP candidate James Harden and Seven Seconds or Less coach Mike D’Antoni. Anderson has started most of the season as a stretch big, and with everyone focusing attention on Harden, Anderson often gets open on pick and roll plays or mismatches on switches.
