Jaiden Glover shines in Deivon Smith’s absence.
All St. John’s needed was a bit of home cooking to bounce back after a disappointing trip to the Bahamas last weekend.
The Johnnies’ three-game stint in the Caribbean was dramatic to say the least; they dropped their first two games of the season thanks to a miraculous buzzer-beater by No. 17 (then No. 13) Baylor and a crushing 66-63 upset by Georgia in a standalone game. St. John’s did not return empty-handed though, the loss to Georgia brought some off-court controversy.
