St. John’s set for pivotal weekend hosting these key transfer targets

A huge weekend is on tap in Queens, one that could set up St. John’s to build on its best season in 25 years. 

Coming off the school’s first outright Big East regular-season title since 1985, Rick Pitino and company have been busy with the transfer portal.

The Johnnies already have brought in top-20 transfers Bryce Hopkins (Providence) and Joson Sanon (Arizona State) after losing key players Kadary Richmond, Aaron Scott, Deivon Smith and RJ Luis, and now they hope to add to a core led by star forward Zuby Ejiofor. 

Stanford sharpshooter Oziyah Sellers, North Carolina guard Ian Jackson, Princeton point guard Xaivian Lee and Cincinnati forward Dillon Mitchell all will be on campus at some point this weekend, according to sources.
