ATLANTA -- Former Georgia Tech point guard and NBA All-Star Kenny Anderson was hired as coach of the CBA's Atlanta Krunk on Tuesday.
Anderson averaged 26 points as a sophomore at Georgia Tech and helped lead the Yellow Jackets to the Final Four as a freshman in 1990.
Anderson was the second overall pick in the 1991 draft by the New Jersey Nets and spent 14 seasons with nine franchises, including the Portland Trail Blazers, the Boston Celtics, the Atlanta Hawks, the Indiana Pacers and the Charlotte Hornets.
"I feel that coming back to the city where I was a college star at Georgia Tech to coach is a blessing," Anderson said in a statement. "I look forward to the challenge that lies ahead. I will work hard and will be fully committed to the CBA's Atlanta Krunk being a success."
The terms of Anderson's contract are confidential, according to CBA rules. Former C&C Music Factory lead vocalist Freedom Williams is the Krunk's franchise majority owner.
