It has been a small sample size so far for Philadelphia 76ers small forward/shooting guard Justin Anderson. Still, he has shown flashes of what he could provide in the coming years as a member of the Philadelphia 76ers.
So far in the month of March, “Simba” is averaging (per 36 minutes) 17.2 points (25.8 minutes per game), along with 8.1 rebounds, while shooting 56.8 percent from the field.
The scoring has been a bonus, because that’s not what the Sixers are going to need from Anderson going forward. They need him to be active, play hard-nose defense like he did the other night against Carmelo Anthony, and rebound the basketball.
