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 September 18, 2012, Warren signed with JSF Nanterre for the 2012–13 season.[5] He was a French champion with Nanterre, winning the 2012–13 LNB Pro A season.[6]

On July 9, 2013, Warren signed with a one-year deal with Uşak Sportif of Turkey.[7] On June 10, 2014, he re-signed with Uşak for one more season.[8]

On August 8, 2015, Warren signed with Greek club AEK Athens.[9] On November 27, 2015, he parted ways with AEK.[10] He then signed with Turkish club Yeşilgiresun Belediye for the rest of the 2015–16 Turkish Basketball Super League season.

On August 3, 2016, Warren returned to Nanterre.[11]
