Tyshawn Taylor turned some heads Tuesday night in Kansas City Pro Am basketball at Penn Valley Community College.

Taylor, Kansas University’s 6-foot-3 freshman point guard from St. Anthony High in Jersey City, N.J., scored 47 points, grabbed 17 rebounds, dished six assists and had two blocks in The Hawks’ 108-89 victory over the Cavaliers.

Taylor averaged 10.0 points a game while running the show for 32-0 St. Anthony, USA Today’s top-ranked high school basketball team.

“He was in a zone,” said Kansas City Northeast High coach Eric Stamps, the K.C. summer league’s vice president/player development.

“He did it in every way possible, going to the basket, taking open jumpers. A lot of fans were saying, ‘Wow, is he the KU guy?’ It was impressive. He’s fast, athletic. There’s a reason he is at KU.

“What KU lost in Mario (Chalmers) they got right back in Tyshawn,” Stamps added. “He’s a mixture of Russell (Robinson) and Mario. He is a basketball player. I see no reason he shouldn’t be one of the top players, at least one of the top newcomers in the Big 12 next year.”
