College career
Anderson was a member of the UCLA Bruins for four years. Along with Jrue Holiday, Malcolm Lee, Drew Gordon, and J'Mison Morgan, he was part of a UCLA recruiting class that was considered No. 1 in the nation. As a freshman in 2008–09, Anderson was a backup to point guard Darren Collison. He was named the starter the following season, but lost his job after he was suspended for being late to a rehab session in January 2010. After Anderson's struggles the previous season, the Bruins recruited junior college transfer Lazeric Jones to compete at point guard. Jones was named the starter for 2010–11, and Anderson became his backup.
Anderson was arrested in July 2011 for stealing a laptop left unattended on a campus bench, and was convicted to 300 hours of community service. In response, UCLA suspended him for the first two games of 2011–12.
