NIU transfer Anderson eligible to play for Iowa State

AMES, Iowa -- Iowa State says transfer Darion Anderson has been granted a waiver by the NCAA to play his final season with the Cyclones.

Anderson, a 6-foot-2 guard, played three seasons after redshirting for Northern Illinois and scored 1,152 points.

Anderson graduated from Northern Illinois and is enrolled in graduate school at Iowa State.

The NCAA waived its rule requiring transfers to sit out a season for Anderson. The rule would have exhausted the five-year window Anderson has to play four years.

Anderson gives the Cyclones an experienced scoring threat in the backcourt. He averaged 10.6 points and six rebounds a game last season.
