  • Olivier Rioux – The Giant From Quebec

    Rioux is a 7″9′ giant from Terrebonne Quebec born February 2nd 2006. The 20 year old was with the Florida State Gators since 2024 up until recently where he decided to transfer to UC Irvine. Some criticism of the giant is that his mobility is extremely under average and is actively holding back his success. Despite this fact, he has still has won two international tournament medals, both being bronze, one from the 2021 FIBA Under-16 Americas Championship, and the other from the 2024 FIBA Under-18 AmeriCup. He has also won the 2025 NCAA National Championship with the Florida Gators. With all these awards, his size, and his potential it is extremely likely that Rioux will become a genuine force to be reckoned with in the future
