No. 10 St. John's hopes to get healthy in time for UConn

Beating DePaul was expected for St. John's, even with leading scorer RJ Luis Jr. sidelined for the first time this season due to a groin injury. On Sunday, the 10th-ranked Red Storm face one of their biggest tests of the season when they oppose UConn -- and having Luis available likely will be much more critical for the game at Madison Square Garden in New York. Luis had not been ruled out for the game, and St. John's coach Rick Pitino said Friday said the decision was up to Luis as the Red Storm attempt to complete a season sweep of the Huskies for the first time since 1999-2000.
