Anderson is Khimki’s sixth signing of the summer. He joins new arrivals Stefan Markovic, Charles Jenkins, Anthony Gill, Tyler Honeycutt, and Andrey Zubkov.
With Darussafaka last season Anderson averaged 9.2ppg and 3.6rpg. He also shot 35-percent from three and showed great success in catch-and-shoot opportunities.
With Khimki retaining most of its core that reached last seasons VTB Finals Khimi looks to have assembled a Final Four dark horse for the upcoming Euroleague season.
