Tounde Yessoufou is done

“We have just about finished a roster with the signing of a special young man in Tounde Yessoufou. His work ethic is like Zuby and his humility reminds me of Sadiku. He’s a special talent and we’re excited to have him in a Johnnies uniform.”

Congrats to the @nyknicks! 👏🗽

I asked Zuby, Bryce, and Dillon about Ruben Prey

Their answers didn’t disappoint #SJUBB

“He’s probably one of the most talented guys we had on the roster last year”

“…I think he’ll be one of the top centers”

“He’s definitely more than capable of filling in the [center] role”

How does St. John's beat Duke?

Well, I tried to boil it down to three things #SJUBB

[Kevin Connelly @KevinConnelly24]

Duke players are unfazed by the idea of St. John's defensive pressure and are very confident they will be able to handle it

“We’ve been pressured by teams before. It’s not like the first time we are seeing this...it’s not a new scout for us"

COLUMN: St. John's has absolutely nothing to lose on Friday night against Duke

After exorcising its Round of 32 demons, and winning two more Big East titles, the Johnnies can play loose and let it fly against one of the title favorites #SJUBB

What does St. John's have to do in order to pull the upset of Duke in the Sweet 16?

Well, a lot...But it starts with trying to contain these three Blue Devils #SJUBB

Missed anything from last night?

Get caught up with all the @StormThePaint coverage below!

First, Bryce Hopkins' transfer journey led him to this week.

He shined for the Red Storm at the Big East Tournament and made everything worth it #SJUBB

It'll be a historic night at MSG on Sunday when St. John's plays No. 1 UConn

It'll be the first ever standalone women's college basketball game in the building and it's been a long time coming

St. John’s is looking for some consistency and continuity and where did they find that against Butler?

The returning players.

It could be a method worth continuing for the Johnnies #SJUBB

Ruben Prey is developing before everybody's eyes and he could turn into a major factor in the success of St. John's in the final two months of the season #SJUBB

Three days ago Dylan Darling looked lost

He lacked confidence and didn't trust his shot

Last night, he was the best player on the floor for the Red Storm in its Big East opener. A lot can change in three days #SJUBB

St. John’s begins Big East play tonight against DePaul and it will be the first of many league games that won’t do much for the Red Storm’s metrics

It’s a brutal situation for the conference’s top teams to be in — win or get metrically crushed #SJUBB

Conference play has begin in the Big East and expect a lot of movement in the next few months in the league's power rankings

Ian Jackson is getting another shot at being the point guard for St. John's beginning on Saturday

Where I’ve seen him grow the most is in his playmaking ability. The game slowed down for him...He’s making his reads better as a point guard.” #SJUBB
