Nicole Anderson is Portland’s deep-ball engine, and she’s making it count
In the 2025-26 season, Portland guard Nicole Anderson has been a steady perimeter weapon, leading the Pilots with 58 made 3-pointers and averaging 8.2 points per game, with a season-high 20-point outburst against Gonzaga and 18 in a win over Saint Mary’s. She’s a classic fit for a team that values shooting gravity, experience, and low-drama production: a senior transfer who already topped 1,000 career points, earned WCC All-Academic First Team honors, and brings a reliable, high-motor outside game that can bend defenses without needing the ball in her hands all night.
