The burden of the Johnnies’ lone big man, Sedee Keita

The broad shoulders of St. John’s Sedee Keita have a burden to uphold this season.

Keita, a 6’9” transfer from the South Carolina program who is finally eligible this season, is the one true big man on a St. John’s team filled with wings who can shoot and attack. While the team’s overall offense last season should see improvement with the incoming players, the defense, which was very good last season, will be the question mark...

...because we don’t yet know how different it will look with Keita on the back line instead of the ferocious stretchy web of defense that is Tariq Owens.
