Air Force’s do-everything, defense-first floor general
In the 2007-08 season, Tim Anderson was Air Force’s engine: he averaged 14.0 points, 82 assists, and 67 steals, earning Mountain West Defensive Player of the Year honors and second-team all-conference recognition. He also finished his Falcons career ranked No. 2 all-time in steals and games played, which tells you the real story: relentless, durable, and disruptive. He’s the kind of guard who raises a team’s intensity, organizes the offense, and makes opponents uncomfortable possession after possession—exactly the sort of glue guy contenders love.
