Nikko “The Rhino” Guirao (New Jersey/SWAT)
Height: 5′9, POS: SG/PG, AGE: 16
Jersey Shore MVP
His nickname speaks for himself. A Rhino, wrecking ball, a tank. Nikko has emerged as one of the top young guns in the NY-NJ Metro areas. Its his strength and ability to score that make him a threat to opposing teams. A player to build around and a player to utilize in forming championship teams. Nikko’s offense varies from his shooting touch from different angles, his ability to break down defenses driving into the lane, and his ability to score at will all around the paint area. His court awareness adds to his offensive arsenal as he’s a legit passer and has a high assist:turnover ratio for an shooting guard. Aside his tank-like strength, he adds to his athleticism with his leaping ability with his 200+ pnd body frame. With good timing off the vert and the usage of his long wingspan, his vertical leap is above the average. He’s been seen playing for SWAT in Hoopsville’s Amateur Men’s
North Jersey Knight
league for the passed few seasons, and has made his mark at NABA being the leader of JSAG’s bantam and junior teams from NABA 2007 to NABA 2009. A beast on the court and a gentlemen off, Nikko’s ranks are up there with the likes of Carlo DeChavez, and AJ Pizon from New Jersey. Keep your eyes and ears open for this baller as he’ll be making some serious noise in 2010.
