Standing six-foot-four, Levi Anderson will be bringing plenty of size and strength to the Saskatchewan Rush in his highly anticipated NLL rookie season.
WATCH: Drafted 12th overall by the Saskatchewan Rush in 2023, Levi Anderson is expected to bring an impactful combination of size, skill and versatility in his first NLL season.“Honestly it’s a dream come true,” said Anderson. “Ever since I was 11, 12 years old I wanted to play in the NLL . Especially so close to home, it’s definitely surreal.”
He came off netting 13 points in seven games for the PLL’s Maryland Whipsnakes before joining the Rush for training camp this month.“The first week was a little rough,” said Anderson. “The first practice was to switch up the pocket a bit with a lot more, quicker touches. Obviously from cleats to shoes, I’d rather have shoes to be honest with you. It’s good, it’s fast-paced and like I said I’m used to it.
“Man he’s a handful out there,” said Keenan. “Insane athlete, skilled, he’s asking the right questions and wants to learn and get better. A really good start with him and enjoyed playing with him.”Taylor Swift in Toronto: $70K in losses from ‘undelivered tickets’ under investigation Establishing a foothold in the NLL will be easier said than done for the soon to be 26-year-old Anderson.
