Don Bosco Prep (Wykoff, NJ) star power forward Tyrell Biggs is a versatile threat in the low post. At 6-7, 260 pounds, Biggs can pass and handle the basketball as good or better than any other low post player in the country. Don Bosco Head Coach Kevin Diverio says Tyrell’s best qualities, in addition to hands, passing ability, and footwork, are his intelligence and unselfishness on the court.

“Three things make TJ the player he is…one is his basketball IQ,” Diverio said. “It’s above average. The other things are his hands and his footwork. He plays power forward for us. He’s a very skilled player. He can handle the ball and he’s a great passer. He’s a total team kid. He defers to his teammates a lot and is just an enjoyable kid to coach.”

Biggs can score too, and is able to score inside and outside.

“A strength of his is his ability to score in the paint,” Diverio said. “But he can also step out and is very consistent from about 17 and in. He’s not as consistent beyond the arc, but he can make some threes. He made about 8 threes for us last year.”
