Anderson was selected by the Hornets with the 18 th pick in the 2026 NBA draft. Although hedoes have some long-term appeal, as both a ballhandler and scorer, it is unlikely he will playa significant role for Charlotte this season, barring injuries to other players. At this stage, hewill battle for playing time with Dennis Schroder and Grayson Allen, both of whom aresomewhat proven when it comes to the NBA. There will almost certainly be pointsthroughout the season when Anderson is thrown into a larger role, although not enough tomake him a viable fantasy asset, outside of dynasty formats.
