EDGE Analysis
While Anderson participated in practice for the first time Tuesday, coach Jacque Vaughn said that Anderson will be held out Wednesday considering he's still getting acclimated. Tyler Johnson and Jamal Crawford will sit out as well. As a result, Timothe Luwawu-Cabarrot, Rodions Kurucs and Dzanan Musa could all see extra run, not to mention guards like Chris Chiozza and Garrett Temple.

Anderson compiled a career-high 48 points (15-22 FG, 8-10 3Pt, 6-7 FT) to go with five rebounds, three assists and two steals across 36 minutes Tuesday in the Long Island Nets' 137-118 loss to the Oklahoma City Blue.
EDGE Analysis
Anderson's scoring tally was also the most by any player in the G League this season, but it wasn't enough to for the Nets to avoid a blowout loss. A veteran of 218 NBA games, Anderson doesn't have much to prove in the G League, but performances like this could allow him to resurface at the sport's top level sooner rather than later.
