PJ Washington vividly recalls high school game against LaMelo Ball: ‘We definitely won that game’

Four years removed, P.J. Washington’s memory is crystal clear and he certainly has no doubt about that.

In 2016, Washington’s Findlay Prep side squared off with LaMelo’s (and LiAngelo’s) Chino Hills in a preseason showcase. The contest saw Findlay Prep jump out to a big lead and hold off a Chino Hills comeback to earn the unofficial win.

Now, as Washington is set to be teammates with Ball, the topic of that scrimmage was brought up again in Wednesday’s media availability and he was quick to bring up the result once more.

“I think we definitely won that game,” he said with a smile.
