Player in review: Kassoum Yakwe
Anthony Gruppuso-USA TODAY SportsA look at the athletic talent of Kassoum Yakwe, his late-season tail-off, and the potential bursting out of the Big East all-Rookie team member.
In the St. John's player feature about Kassoum Yakwe, Greg St. Jean spoke about how high the ceiling is for Kassoum Yakwe, the 6'7" forward who chose the Red Storm as an early-graduating senior from Our Savior New American High School.
He's still 18 years old until October. What he showed in his first year at St. John's has to leave fans excited, especially since there is much room for growth. Especially if he's not playing most of his minutes as an undersized center.
