Justin Anderson looks to bring Virginia's defense to the NBA

Defense. Defense. Defense.

There's been just one word associated with the Virginia Cavaliers in recent seasons. And that word is defense.

Virginia has won 30 games in each of the past two seasons, reaching the top three in the AP poll and earning a No. 1 and No. 2 seed in the NCAA tournament. Now it's looking to send another one of its own to the NBA.

Justin Anderson is planning on carrying the traditions that have transformed Virginia into an ACC power to the professional level. And whether that's playing hard-nosed defense, doing everything on the basketball court or just plain knowing how to win, Anderson's going to bring it with hopes of getting his name called by the commissioner.
