Saskatchewan Rush general manager and co-head coach Derek Keenan had debated about moving his first selection in the days leading up to the 2024 National Lacrosse League Draft.

On Sunday, he did just that, swinging a massive trade for one of lacrosse’s most-talked-about young prospects.

On the clock at sixth overall, the Rush traded that pick and a 2025 second round selection to the Vancouver Warriors in exchange for forward Brock Haley.

Drafted by Vancouver at seventh overall in 2023, Haley was a junior star with the Whitby Warriors and rounded out his junior career with 105 goals and 175 points in just 26 games during the 2022 season.

“It worked out quite well for both teams,” said Keenan in a post-draft interview. “You don’t find a 105-goal scorer every day. We think he’s going to be a guy who’s going to be here for a long time and bring a lot.”
