snapshot HIGH FLYER The UVa men's basketball team was off to its best start (17‑0) in 34 years, and third‑year guard Justin Anderson was a big reason why. Last year, the Maryland native was tabbed as the ACC Sixth Man of the Year after provid‑ ing athleticism and defense off the bench. This year, he entered the starting lineup and taken his offensive game to new heights. Through Jan. 18, he was averaging career highs in scoring (14.5 points per game), re‑ bounds (4.4 boards per contest), field goal percentage (50.6), three‑point percentage (52.7) and minutes played (29.5 per outing). After making only 50 of 168 three‑pointers (29.8 percent) his first two seasons in Char‑ lottesville, he knocked down 39 of his first 74 (52.7 percent) from long range this season to top the ACC and rank among the national leaders. As a result, he was named to the Wooden Award Midseason Top 25 on Jan. 14. PHOTO BY MATT RILEY/COURTESY UVA
