Justin Anderson was in the fifth grade when he first dunked on a regulation basket. As an eighth-grader, he received special permission to play on his local high school's junior varsity team. Now a junior at top-ranked Montrose Christian, Anderson is in his third season playing at one of the Washington area's basketball powerhouses. He spent the past two summers as a member of USA Basketball's junior national teams and "can go to any college that he wants," according to his high school coach. (Washington Post)
