Anderson Makes NBA History

Christian Anderson is officially headed to the NBA, becoming the first Texas Tech player drafted in the first round since 2019 and joining elite company with just three other Red Raiders ever selected on draft night. Picked 18th by the Charlotte Hornets, Anderson brings elite playmaking and scoring to a young team anchored by LaMelo Ball — and even more intriguingly, he’ll share the court with fellow German national teammate Hannes Steinbach. Known for his pick-and-roll mastery and high basketball IQ, Anderson could immediately impact Charlotte’s offense, especially when Ball rests. With Red Raider fans already witnessing his growth, Anderson’s potential in Charlotte could be huge — and his NBA journey just begun.
