Anderson has spent more time in Tucson this summer than any other UA scholarship player, adding nearly 10 pounds to his 7-foot, now-240-pound frame.
Bruce Pascoe Instead of keeping freshmen away from the media spotlight while they prepare for their first season, the Arizona Wildcats for the first time have been formally introducing them on a weekly basis before full practices even start.
It hasn’t been easy. Even though Anderson said it helped that UA staffers gave him suggestions to work on as a senior at Perry last season, he still found the cardio work especially taxing when he arrived in Tucson. Specifically, Anderson said he’s worked lately on his timing of blocking shots and, among other things, simply being tougher.
"It's a huge transition for a young 7-foot kid, … and he probably started a little slow, but I think he's really got his footing," Lloyd said last month."His ball goes in, he's got a jump hook that goes in, he's got a few post moves. He can make mid-range shots. He can make a wide open 3. I think he's really gonna grow in our pick-and-roll stuff."
