G/F. Kentucky. Justin Anderson. 21. player. 24.  Justin Anderson was a part of a defense that was fifth in efficiency in the NCAA last year. His large frame and basketball IQ make him a tenacious defender that would be an asset to any team. <p>Chicago Bull’s head coach, Tom Thibodeau values defense over everything. Which is why he drafted Tony Snell in the 2013 NBA draft instead of a more offensive minded player.</p> <p>Justin Anderson would also be an immediate impact player off the bench for the Bulls as well. Playing behind Mike Dunleavy and Snell, Anderson would have his work cut out for him as far as minutes go. But Coach Thihbodeau does a great job at getting his rookie’s experience, so when the time comes for them to perform, they are more than capable. Drafting Justin Anderson 21st overall just makes sense for the Chicago Bulls.</p>
