Cosenza Basket Pyroxigeno officially communicates the engagement of Niccolò Guzzo, a guard of high technical thickness and ideal profile for the needs of the DR1 series championship. The operation, strongly desired by the team manager Davide Durantini and the sports director Fabio Lorenzi, marks a strategic step for the newborn rossoblù company in view of a tournament announced as among the most competitive in recent years.
Technique and experience at the service of DR1
Niccolò Guzzo brings all the characteristics requested by the DR1 championship as a dowry: reliable realization, confirmed in the last season of Dr1 series with the Cosenza microvega, specialization in the three -point shooting and tested leadership. His ability to close the actions under pressure and guide young people make him a multiplier of opportunities for the rossoblù project.
“I am a player who seeks responsibility – says Guzzo -. I know the dynamics of Dr1 well: aggression, concreteness and coldness are needed in the decisive moments. I have points in my hands and I intend to put them at the service of this exciting project”.
A high impact path
Guzzo’s curriculum guarantees immediacy for the newly formed company: from the promotion in C1 – conquered with Soverato in 2012 – to the experiences in C1, C2 and B2, until the last season in Dr1 series where it was the best realization at the Cosenza micromega.
Fabio Lorenzi, sports director of pyroxigenous, highlights the player’s value in symbiosis with team philosophy: “Niccolò is the prototype of the player Dr1: concrete, rooted in the territory and with that mix of experience and determination that makes the difference. His realization attitude will be the pivot of our attack”.
The team manager Davide Durantini adds: “His versatility between guard and playmaker is a tactical advantage for our system that the Manu Gallo coach will base on high pace and aggressive defense. A profile tailored to the challenges of DR1”.
