"I've known Bruce for well over 20 years both personally and professionally...Bruce is a fierce negotiator...He's the most experienced of any women's agent. He has history in how the game evolved, where it's been and what it has come to. He has a tremendous amount of resources - international and domestic. He is very honest and most of all, he cares about the players and the sport. And in this day and age when there are many agents with other motives, Bruce is genuine."
Carol Blazejowski, Senior Vice President and General Manager New York Liberty, as told to NextZone Magazine.

"Levy's players are said to be extremely loyal to him and rarely make a career move without his advice. He has emerged as a powerful voice in the current contract negotiations, with considerable influence over the union's negotiating committee, which includes four of his clients....Clients like [Weatherspoon], who has been with Levy for 11 years, describe him as a tough negotiator who is extremely protective of his players."

"...People are crawling out of the rocks. I think the only downside is the imitators calling themselves agents. The real people who have been there before women's basketball even started, like the Bruce Levy's, they're the ones who paid their dues..."

"He is arguably one of the most powerful men in women's basketball. At one time or another, just about every player with marketable skills had either signed with him or given serious thought to it...[he] can determine whether or not Teresa Weatherspoon will stay with the New York Liberty or look for another team. He can take a marginal player and get her a tryout. With 52 players, 34 in the WNBA with the rest scattered in 15 countries, he has more clout and more impact on his chosen game than any other agent in professional sports."
