Former Temple guard Guzman cut from pro team

Luis Guzman, the starting point guard on last year’s nationally ranked men’s basketball team, has been cut from his Slovakia-based professional team.

Guzman, who started 68 games while at Temple, signed with the BK 04 AC LB SPISSKA NOVA VES squad in August. Guzman was cut just days before Nova Ves was scheduled to open the season against Vahostav-Zil.

If another basketball opportunity doesn’t arise, Guzman can fall back on the Bachelor of Business Administration degree that he obtained in three and a half years. Temple News sports editor emeritus Jen Reardon touched on Guzman’s academic prowess here.
