HP lost in OT 84 - 83. Chaminade's Jayson Tatum (Duke recruit) scored 46 and was basically unstoppable. Lots of very fluid spin and baseline moves. Haven't found any other individual stats but Izzo and Sparty are getting a good one in CuJo's teammate, Miles Bridges. As for CuJo, this was the first full game I've seen him play and have a mixed reaction. He can shoot and he made several nice drives to the basket. Sees the court and had some really nice assists. Defensively, I'd describe him as lackadaisical, although no one seems overly interested in playing good defense in these types of games. I thought he played soft and rarely went into the paint looking for rebounds. Several times, I also thought he only made a half-hearted attempt at loose balls or stray passes. Again, this is the first full game I've seen him play.

Seen Cujo 4 times live and your report jibes pretty closely with what I've seen as well. I've seen him play some pretty good D on ball with his length and lateral quickness. But he consistently loses awareness off ball. Not being coached up much either.
Live in St Louis and have seen Tatum a lot. The definition of what a 9 figure NBA player looks like as a 17 year old. Terrific player and also has a rep as a really good kid.
Curious, how did the Turkish kid for HP play? Thought he was pretty good when I saw him. Reminded me of Sheehey.

Just tried to primarily stay focused on Cujo and really couldn't tell you much about anyone other than he, Bridges and Tatum.
