Scouting: Georgetown @ DePaul

Georgetown (10-1, 1-0) at DePaul (7-6, 0-1)When: 1 p.m. at Allstate ArenaTV: ThisTV (WCIU Ch. 26.4; Comcast Ch. 246); Radio: WSCR 670-AMSkinny: The 13th-ranked Hoyas come to town with a fistful of all-stars and an adherence to the Princeton offense and a rock-ribbed defense. Opponents shoot just 37.7 percent against John Thompson III's team. Sophomore center Greg Monroe leads the way with 15.3 points and 10.3 rebounds per game, but DePaul coach Jerry Wainwright thinks his passing ability is just as good as the rest of his skills. Junior point guard Chris Wright (14.5 ppg, 3.5 apg) will be a tough matchup for Jeremiah Kelly and Will Walker, who'll split the point duties with Mike Bizoukas (knee injury) likely out for the year. A flu virus has been winding its way through the DePaul squad, but the Demons hope it stopped with Walker's 102-degree fever earlier this week at Pittsburgh.
