Alan Anderson upgraded to QUESTIONABLE vs. Magic in season closer

Brooklyn Nets backup guard Alan Anderson has been listed as questionable to play Wednesday against the Orlando Magic, after missing six straight games with a sprained left ankle. It is the first time since Anderson suffered the injury on April 2nd that he has been listed by the team as anything but “out.”

Wednesday marks the final game of the regular season for the Nets, and with the playoffs still uncertain, the team could use Anderson’s acumen on the wing. The Nets allow 101.3 points per 100 possessions with Anderson on the floor, the best mark of any rotation player, mostly due to the team’s improved perimeter defense.

Anderson has averaged 7.4 points and 2.8 rebounds in 23.6 minutes per game this season, shooting 34.8 percent from three-point range.
