Anderson apparently close to signing with Pacers
September 19, 2003
INDIANAPOLIS (AP) -- The Indiana Pacers are apparently close to signing
veteran Kenny Anderson to help improve the team's depth at point guard.
Anderson, a free agent, was expected to arrive in Indianapolis on
Friday to sign with the Pacers, a story on the team's Web site said
Thursday.
Anderson, who turns 33 next month, averaged 6.1 points and 3.2 assists
last season for Seattle and New Orleans.

The 6-foot-1 Anderson has averaged 13.4 point and 6.4 assists with six
teams over 12 seasons in the NBA.
Jamaal Tinsley has been the Pacers' starting point guard the past two
seasons, but new team president Larry Bird has said he believed Tinsley
needed to ``mature.''
New Jersey took Anderson with the No. 2 overall pick of the 1991 draft.
He was a starter in the 1994 NBA All-Star game. He averaged 18.8 points
and 9.6 assists for the Nets that season, both career highs.
