CHICAGO — Villanova-bound Cam Whitmore scored 19 points, future Duke Blue Devil Dariq Whitehead added 13 points, and the East beat the West 105-81 at Wintrust Arena on Tuesday night.

Whitmore had eight rebounds. Whitehead added seven rebounds and seven assists while taking MVP honors as the East rolled to an easy win.

Duke-bound Mark Mitchell led the West with 19 points.

Former NBA star Jermaine O’Neal sat courtside wearing a Louis Vuitton jacket and Chicago rapper G Herbo sat four chairs to his left. Lil Baby performed at halftime.

The East had already put on quite a show by then, racing out to a 58-38 lead.

Whitehead nailed three 3s and had 11 points to go with five assists in the half. Whitmore scored nine points, and the 6-foot-7 guard from Archbishop Spalding near Baltimore punctuated it with a windmill dunk in the closing seconds that drew the loudest roar from the crowd until Lil Baby took the floor.

Anthony Black, who announced his commitment to Arkansas on Monday night on ESPN, giving Eric Musselman and the Razorbacks their third five-star prospect in the 2022 class, was on the West roster.
