After earning All-Big East honors twice and cementing himself as a high-level scorer on the collegiate level for two seasons, junior 6’8” wing Julian Champagnie has declared for the NBA Draft. Per the school’s release, he finishes his St. John’s career third in three-pointers made and 20th on the school’s all-time scoring list.
Per the NY Post, he will sign with the same agent that helped him with his Name, Image and Likeness (NIL) deal, the new college basketball rule that allows players to earn some money based on their fame.
Champagnie leaves school a season early, but the move was widely expected.
