John Calipari started Cameron Reddish at PG for Team USA Basketball

P.J. Washington and Hamidou Diallo stole the show Wednesday as they led the US U19 team to an 89-66 victory over Lithuania in an exhibition game in the FIBA U19 World Cup games in Egypt.

However, one under-the-radar story was that of Cameron Reddish. The five-star wing is very high on UK’s recruiting big board for 2018. A big reason being is that John Calipari views Reddish as another ‘positionless’ player that can contribute in a variety of ways.

One of those came Wednesday as Calipari made the surprising decision to start Reddish at point guard.
