Dayjaun Anderson brings shot-making pop and defensive edge to UAB
Anderson is a guard who profiles as an immediate-impact floor spacer: in the 2025-26 season at UAB, he averaged 5.4 points, 1.7 rebounds and 0.9 steals in 16.3 minutes, with his value showing up in energy, perimeter defense and catch-and-shoot upside rather than volume creation. He arrived with a JUCO All-American résumé, having averaged 17.8 points and hit 122 threes at Triton, so the upside is real if his efficiency climbs. For a team, he fits best as a competitive, low-ego rotation guard who can defend, space the floor and swing momentum.
