Kenneth (Kenny) Anderson (born October 9th 1970, Queens, New York) is a left-handed point guard who played more than a decade in the NBA.

Selected by the New Jersey Nets with the second pick in the 1991 NBA Draft out of Georgia Tech, Anderson was the youngest player in the league, at that time. He failed to make an expected impact during his rookie campaign in 1991-92, averaging only seven points, two rebounds and 3.2 assists per game. However, in Anderson's second season he broke out, more than doubling his points, rebounds and assists averages. He played solidly for the next 3½ seasons before being traded to the Charlotte Hornets in 1996.

Throughout his career Anderson has played for the Hornets (including both Charlotte and New Orleans franchises), Portland Trail Blazers, Boston Celtics, Seattle SuperSonics, Indiana Pacers, and split a season for the Atlanta Hawks and Los Angeles Clippers.

In 1998, Portland traded Anderson to the Toronto Raptors for Damon Stoudamire, but he refused to report to the Raptors because he did not want to play in Canada. Without playing a single game for them, Anderson forced the Raptors' hand and they traded him to the Celtics for Chauncey Billups.

Anderson is currently playing for Zalgiris Kaunas of Lithuania.

Anderson has experienced off-court problems as well. As a result of a divorce from his ex-wife (due to infidelity), she successfully acquired a sizeable portion of his assets. She had a license plate custom-made to mark her victory with the phrase "HISCASH".

Anderson attended Archbishop Molloy High School in Queens.
