Penny Hardaway still has game off the court.

The retired NBA star surprised Chaminade College Preparatory School standout Jayson Tatum with the news he'd been named the 2015-16 Gatorade National Boys Basketball Player of the Year, disguising himself as a reporter at a staged press conference at the St. Louis school.

Hardaway sat in the back row with a ball cap and sunglasses on when he posed his big question to Tatum: "How does it feel to be Gatorade National Boys Basketball Player of the Year?"

It took him a few moments, but Tatum eventually caught on to what was happening.

Surprise: successfully completed.
