- Oziyah Sellers (10.3 ppg and 2.7 rpg)

- Ian Jackson (9.4 ppg and 2.3 rpg)
- Lefteris Liotopoulos (2.9 ppg and 0.9 rpg)
Roster additions
- Donnie Freeman (16.5 ppg and 7.2 rpg at Syracuse)
- Avery Brown (4.3 ppg and 2.0 rpg at Columbia)
- Quinn Ellis (international guard prospect)
- Lazar Stojkovic (international center prospect)
- Babacar Sane (international forward prospect)
The Red Storm lost a ton of talent this offseason, but keeping Jackson, who was most likely to leave at some point, is a positive. Ellis is viewed as one of the best international prospects coming from overseas, and gives them a quality point guard to run the offense.
Freeman is an all-league candidate coming over from Syracuse, and there's confidence that Coach Rick Pitino will keep St. John’s as a ranked contender. But after missing out on multiple transfer targets, there’s still work to solidify the roster to avoid falling down the pecking order.
