Langston Galloway, as seen through the eyes of a New York Knicks expert

Langston Galloway is a Louisiana kid through and through.

He was born in Baton Rouge in December of 1991. In 2010 he led Christian Life Academy to their sixth state championship. That championship, by the way, was the fourth title Galloway won in five years with the Crusaders.

But as his high school career ended, so too did his ties to the state.

Galloway came “really close” to going to LSU for his college years but elected to attend St. John’s instead. Spurning the university that was right in his backyard, Galloway played college ball in his mother’s hometown of Philadelphia.
