Richard Freudenberg, the 6’9” wing from Germany, is leaving St. John’s after a season to pursue professional opportunities in Europe.
“I am grateful to my teammates and coaches at St. John’s for making this experience a good one,” said Freudenberg in a press release. “It has always been a goal of mine to play basketball professionally and I believe I am ready to take the next step in my career back in Europe.”
Now we know why Marcus LoVett is getting to wear the #20 next season.
Freudenberg, who was playing for Bayern Munich’s youth team, had the choice of signing a professional contract in Europe or going to college last season.
