St. John’s basketball is set to make its 2021 debut following an extended holiday break.

After not taking the floor since December 20, the St. John’s basketball program is finally set to return to action on Saturday afternoon.

The Red Storm (6-4, 1-3 Big East) picked up its first conference victory of the season in its last outing against Georgetown and its opponent on Saturday is no stranger long layoffs.

DePaul (1-2, 0-2 Big East) did not begin its season until December 23 after multiple outbreaks of COVID-19 within its program.
