US EditionArizona State's Joson Sanon transfers to St. John's
- Joson Sanon, a 6-foot-5 freshman wing from Arizona State and former four-star recruit, is transferring to St. John's to play for Hall of Fame coach Rick Pitino.
- St. John's, after a successful 31-5 season where they won the Big East title and secured a No. 2 seed in the NCAA Tournament, aims to build upon their success and make a deeper tournament run next season.
- Sanon, despite facing injury challenges, averaged 11.9 points and 3.4 rebounds in 28 minutes per game while shooting around 37% from three-point range during his freshman season with the Sun Devils, who had a 13-19 record.
- St. John's struggled with outside shooting, making only 30% of their three-point attempts during the season and going 2-for-22 in their second-round NCAA Tournament loss to Arkansas, making Sanon's shot-making ability a clear priority for the team.
- Sanon told ESPN that Pitino believes in him and his potential, and he wants to show Pitino he's the hardest working player that's ever played for him, while his agent noted St. John's was the first call and encouraged Sanon to jump at the opportunity to play for Pitino.
