In building on a successful junior season that features four triple-doubles, the ESPN four-star prospect scored a game-high 27 points, including eight down the stretch, to help the visiting SourceHoops Class 6A No. 3 Jaguars (13-3) hold off Class 5A No. 2 Cardinal Gibbons 53-50.
“I knew coming in from August that I had to take over the game whenever it was needed,” Cheatham said. “I’m loving that mind-set.
“I’m playing with a ton of confidence right now. I’ve been working out. It’s coming out good, and I’m loving the way I’m playing now.”
With Charter barely holding on, Cheatham answered with a twisting layup around three defenders for a three-point lead, then made six consecutive free throws down the stretch, culminating with a pair with 0.6 seconds left after grabbing Jose Morales’ bank shot with three seconds left that bounced off the rim.
While Cheatham fell short of his fifth triple-double this season, he added 10 rebounds, five steals and four assists, including a pass from beyond midcourt that hit Peter Buckely in stride for a layup and 12-5 lead.

Pines Charter star guard becomes a triple threat
Much like “The Man”, Cheatham, a ESPN four-star prospect, has been trending upward and will bring a stat line of 26.2 points, 7.5 rebounds and 4.5 assists — highlighted by four triple doubles — when he leads the Class 6A No. 5 Jaguars (16-5) into the District 14-6A championship game on Friday .
“Last year I played a team role with a lot of passing,” Cheatham said. “This year I’ve stepped up more as a leader. I love when the game is on the line. Whenever my team needs me they look at me and say ‘take over.’ It’s a different Haanif this year.”
This Cheatham playing with a chip on his shoulder and closing out games with a wide offensive arsenal, is a stark contrast to the pass-first version whose primary role last season was to set the table for Pines’ talented wing duo of Connecticut 6-4 commit Prince Ali and 6-5 Justin Satchell.

• Pines Charter 66, St. Thomas Aquinas 45: Class 6A No. 6 Pines Charter (18-5) earned a rematch with Class 7A No. 2 Boyd Anderson (19-4) in Friday’s late semifinal following a victory over St. Thomas Aquinas.
The Raiders got a team-high 21 points from emerging sophomore 6-7 center Hank Hunter and 14 points from Sidney Umude but simply had no answer for Jaguars’ 6-5 star swingman Haanif Cheatham.
Cheatham, a ESPN four star prospect finished with a game-high 25 points and six assists, highlighted by an alley-oop he caught off the backboard from Dimitri Harper.
