Former Kansas combo guard Elijah Johnson playfully approached Charlie Moore after the compact 5-foot-11 KU sophomore stole the basketball and converted a layup to mercifully end the Red Team’s 80-44 annihilation of Johnson’s pro-dominated Blue Squad during the Bill Self campers game Wednesday afternoon at Horejsi Family Athletics Center.
“I don’t appreciate what they did to us. I told Charlie we were just getting off the plane. Wayne (Selden was) just getting here 40 minutes ago. I said, ‘I was still sleepy and you want to run the score up on us? Have more respect for your elders,’” Johnson said with a wry smile after hitting one three and scoring five points in the lopsided defeat.
