St. John’s added a notable piece to its frontcourt Monday, landing Syracuse transfer Donnie Freeman, according to sources.
Freeman, a talented forward, committed to the Red Storm after a recruitment that also included Kentucky. St. John’s ultimately beat out the Wildcats for his pledge.
A key transfer addition
Freeman’s commitment gives St. John’s another option up front as the program continues to build its roster through the transfer market. The Red Storm’s ability to secure his decision over another high-profile suitor underscores the program’s momentum on the recruiting trail.
Freeman arrives from Syracuse, where he played before entering the transfer portal. His move to Queens marks one of the more prominent transfer decisions involving a Big East program this cycle.
