Christopher Tirrell Warren (born October 22, 1988) is an American professional basketball player.

Early life

Florida native Chris Warren was born in Orlando, Florida, and graduated from Dr. Phillips High School in Orlando.[1]

College career

Warren attended the University of Mississippi from 2007, until graduating in 2011. He played for the Ole Miss Rebels men's basketball team, and started 114 out of his 115 games that he in played for the Rebels. The only game he didn't start was on Senior Day, during his freshman year. Despite his small height, he was often playing against taller and (early in his career) more experienced guards, Warren excelled for the Rebels, with his speed around the court, and his outside game troubling opponents in his four years of college ball.

Warren's list of achievements while playing for Ole Miss in the Southeastern Conference (SEC) read as follows:[2]

Professional career

After graduating from Ole Miss, Warren was signed as an import player for the Adelaide 36ers for the Australian League's 2011–12 NBL season.[3] After a string of failed import guards in the preceding seasons, Warren was a good find for the struggling 36ers. With Adelaide finishing in 9th place in the Australian NBL League, Warren played in 28 games for the team, and averaged 14.2 points, 3.2 assists, 2.3 rebounds, and 0.8 steals per game, in 31.5 minutes per game. With his 14.2 points per game scoring average, he was second for the 36ers in scoring, behind centre Daniel Johnson.[4]

On July 9, 2013, Warren signed with the Turkish League club Uşak Sportif.[5] On August 8, 2015, Warren signed with the Greek League club AEK Athens.[6]
