  • Kyle Anderson Wins MVP, Will Shut it Down

    Share Zagsblog Share Zagsblog
    Kyle Anderson was named MVP of the IS8 league on Sunday and he helped the Playaz with the championship over the Shooting Stars, 77-73, with 19 points, 12 rebounds and seven assists. Rutgers-bound point guard Myles Mack added 24 points for the Playaz and was named MVP of the final.

    But Anderson will have to wear a medical boot to heal multiple bruises located on the bones of his right foot, according to his father, Kyle Sr. He initially sustained this injury during a 3-point loss to the Drew Gooden Soldiers in the semifinals of the Fab 48 in Las Vegas last July. He will wear the boot for a approximately 3-4 weeks.

    The 6-foot-8 Anderson will still make scheduled visits to Xavier (Nov. 5) and UCLA (Nov. 12).

    St. Anthony opens its season Dec. 17.

    Anderson is the No. 1 point guard in the nation in the Class of 2012.
