Anthony Mathis (born November 23, 1996) is an American professional basketball player for the BC Kalev of the Latvian-Estonian Basketball League. He played college basketball for New Mexico and Oregon.

Early life and high school career

[edit | edit source]

Mathis attended West Linn High School alongside Payton Pritchard. He helped win three 6A state basketball titles.[1] As a junior, Mathis was named to the Class 6A first-team all-state.[2] He scored 38 points in an upset of Joseph Wheeler High School in the Les Schwab Invitational during his senior season.[3] In May 2014, he committed to New Mexico over Oregon State, Portland and UNLV.[2]

College career

[edit | edit source]

Mathis averaged 2.3 points per game as a freshman at New Mexico. He averaged 2.9 points per game as a sophomore and an injury ended his season after 10 games. Following the season, Mathis contemplated quitting basketball and eventually asked coach Craig Neal for a release from his scholarship in order to transfer. While talking with potential schools, Neal was fired and Mathis ended up remaining at New Mexico under new coach Paul Weir. As a junior, Mathis averaged 12.7 points per game, making 98 three pointers while shooting 47.3 percent from behind the arc, fourth-highest in Division 1.[4] He scored a career-high 27 points on January 5, 2019, in a 85–58 win over sixth-ranked Nevada.[5] He averaged 14.4 points, 2.2 rebounds, and 2.1 assists per game as a senior, setting a school record with 106 made three-pointers on 41.6 percent shooting.[1] Mathis was named to the Third Team All-Mountain West for the second straight season.[6]

On April 17, Mathis was granted an additional season of eligibility by the NCAA on account of his injury-shortened sophomore season.[7] On June 5, Mathis committed to Oregon as a graduate transfer, choosing the Ducks over Boston College, Kansas, Houston, Oklahoma, and Texas A&M, among others.[1] Mathis scored 19 points on December 14, shooting 6-of-10 from three-point range, in a 71–70 win over fifth-ranked Michigan.[8] As a redshirt senior, Mathis averaged 8.5 points and 2.3 rebounds per game.[9]
