Meet The Swagg Champ!
There's a lot of good basketball players that's not in the NBA. As a basketball player you get interested when you get to hang around really good basketball players. It interests you to see what the person does to be as good as they are.
Antonio Biglow of Los Angeles, California is better know as the "Swagg Champ" in the Drew League is one of the best players in the city. You will know it's him because he's probably wearing some crazy shoes on the court. Ever since I met him almost 7 or 8 years ago he's always been talked about around the city for his ball handling skills. When you watch him play, it's not just ball handling skills that catches you it's everything he does. He can blow by you with the quick first, he has all the moves to make you foul him and he can get his teammates involved too. He's very unselfish and wants to see his teammates score. He's a pretty good defender too when he wants to be, when you smack talk him he usually makes sure he defends you.
In junior college at Mt. Sac in Walnut, California he won North Division player of the year his freshman and sophomore seasons and he won California JC player of the year his sophomore season in 2011 averaging 22 points and 6 assists a game and that came with 27 points per game in league play.
From there he went on to Montana State and had and finished his college career out. Making it out of Los Angeles to play college athletics is always the goal for us inner city kids. He achieved that goal getting that scholarship to Montana State. He averaged 11 points and 1.8 steals a game his junior. As you see the production is always there.
Playing in the Drew League which is probably the best Pro-Am in the nation can get your name out there. Biglow won a Drew League championship in 2014 as he led his team to the promised land. He was chosen as one of the select few players to play in the Drew League's much hyped game vs. the Seattle Pro- Am The Crawsover this summer.
If you hear "Swagg Champ" while your in Los Angeles pay attention. Your ankles might be gone.
