Sophomore guard Joson Sanon entered the transfer portal on Wednesday, according to multiple reports. Sanon joins an expanding list of Red Storm departures, becoming the fifth St. John’s player to hit the portal this offseason.
March Madness hero Dylan Darling entered the portal shortly after European guard Quinn Ellis’s commitment yesterday, Sadiku Ibine Ayo and Imran Suljanovic landed at Iona and New Mexico, respectively, and Lefteris Liotopoulos is still looking for his next destination. A former five-star high school recruit from Fall River, Massachusetts, Sanon began his college career at Arizona State, averaging 11. 9 points on 42.
2% shooting and 36. 9% from three as a freshman before he entered the transfer portal that offseason and committed to St. John’s.
