Ryan Anderson has become one of the most likable players in New Orleans basketball history.
Whether it was the effort he gave on the court or the love for the fans he showed off the court. Ryan is a fan’s favorite kind of player. He’s kind, caring and works as hard as he can to help his team win. He turned into a New Orleans fan favorite.
It’s what made the 2013-2014 season so hard to watch.
Ryan Anderson’s girlfriend took her own life during the 2013 offseason, an unspeakable tragedy. It took time for Ryan to gain confidence to rejoin the team and return to the court.
