Expert Analysis
Robbie Hodin | Prep Hoops Scout
Araujo has some awesome feel for his age. The 6-foot guard has solid quickness and jumping talent, but he knows he has to change speeds and directions effectively to truly unlock his paint-touch ability — and he fully leans into that. He has a nice rhythm and cadence to how he handles the basketball, and he can finish in a variety of ways at the rim. But Araujo also shoots it very well from three and can do so off of the dribble and the catch, too, so he’s versatile on that end. He’ll play a key role for Xaverian Brothers this season and is only going to continue to get better with his IQ and feel for the game.

Araujo, a sophomore guard at Xaverian Brothers, has the chance to be one of the top underclassmen in the MIAA this winter. He’s an aggressive, downhill guard that knows how to get to his spots off the bounce. He does a nice job of protecting the basketball, can spray it out to teammates when he gets a piece of the paint, and has nice touch as a finisher over size in the paint.
