Anderson, 24, was drafted in the first round of the 2014 NBA draft by the San Antonio Spurs after being part of an incredible two-year 65-0 winning streak at St. Anthony.

ESPN, citing league sources, reported on the small forward signing a big deal with the Grizzlies on Friday. It appears unlikely that the Spurs will match that multi-million dollar offer, various sports media outlets have since reported.

St. Anthony, which produced one of the most prolific high school basketball programs in the country, closed after the 2016-2017 scholastic year due to rapidly increasing costs and enrollment on the decline.

Legendary Head Basketball Coach Bob Hurley told The Star-Ledger in 2012 that Anderson “is our heart and soul.”
