Ricci Rivero among the players to watch in FIBA 3x3 Asia Cup 2019

Ricci Rivero is one of the 10 players to watch in the FIBA 3x3 Asia Cup 2019 according to an article in the competition’s website.

Rivero is one of the members of Gilas Pilipinas 3x3 in the coming FIBA tournament slated to begin May 22 until 26.

Here’s how Rivero was described in the article by the FIBA website:

“The 20-year-old is big business in hoops crazy Philippines. He’s already appeared in a Filipino film, but it’s on the court where Rivero entertains best.

When he can’t throw down a trademark vicious slam, Rivero changes in midair and somehow finishes with acrobatic layups. And not even James Harden can Eurostep better than him. 

He’s a star in the making on-and-off the court.”

Others who made it to the list are Tom Wright of Australia, Yi Zhen of China, Akilan Pari of India, Rizki Effendi of Indonesia, Shayan Pourkaveh of Iran, Dulguun Enkhbat of Mongolia, Abdulrahman Saad of Qatar, Stefan Nguyen of Vietnam, and Hee Yee Tong of Malaysia.
