Kansas walk-on guard with brains, hustle, and deep Jayhawk DNA
Niko Roberts was a deep-rotation Kansas guard whose value came less from box-score fireworks and more from feel, toughness, and IQ: in the 2013-14 season, he appeared in 6 games for the Jayhawks, and across his KU career he was known as a gym-rat walk-on who could create plays and add backcourt depth. He also carried strong intangibles — the son of longtime coach Norm Roberts, he brought familiarity with elite-level standards, high effort, and a team-first mindset. If your team wants a savvy, low-drama competitor who understands winning habits, he’s the type you want around.
