Anderson says he's ready to be a Racer
MBB: The 7-footer spent two seasons at Arizona before playing at Boise State last year
Dylan Anderson, a 7-footer who most recently played at Boise State, posted on social media he has committed to Murray State.
In high school, Anderson was the fifth player in Arizona history to win the Gatorade Player of the Year award on multiple occasions. Rivals and 247Sports both listed him as a Top-100 recruit coming out of high school.
Anderson played 15 games at Arizona as a freshman, averaging 3.6 minutes and 1.4 points per game. He used the 2023-24 season to redshirt to working on developing his game. Anderson left Arizona after that season to transfer to Boise State.
During the 2024-25 campaign, Anderson played in 24 games, starting in 11, averaging 3.5 points and 1.7 rebounds in 10.1 minutes of action per game.
With Anderson committing to Murray State, here are the 11 players who are now set to be on next year’s roster playing for the Racers in 2025-26:
Ben Shtolzberg (6’4 senior guard/3.8 PPG last year at UC Santa Barbara)
KJ Tenner (6’0 sophomore guard/2.4 PPG last year at West Virginia)
Mason Miller (6’9 senior guard/1.1 PPG last year at Creighton)
Fredrick King (6’9 senior forward/2.7 PPG last year at Creighton)
JJ Traynor (6’9 senior forward/5.6 PPG last year at DePaul)
Javon Jackson (6’3 senior guard/11.6 PPG last year at UIC)
Layne Taylor (5’11 sophomore guard/17.4 PPG last year at Central Arkansas)
Brock Vice (6’10 sophomore forward (1.2 PPG last year at North Texas)
Brayden Shorter (6’5 junior guard/15.5 PPG last year at D-II Washburn)
Tristian Ford (6’3 incoming freshman guard)
Dylan Anderson (7’0 junior forward/3.5 PPG last year at Boise State)
Here are the two players who could potentially return to the Racers next year, but have yet to make anything publicly official regarding their future:
Junior guard Patrick Chew
Senior guard Justin Morgan
Once Chew and/or Morgan publicly announce their intention to play for the Racers next year, they will count toward the four available scholarships Miller still has the ability to fill for the 2025-26 season.
