Georgetown vs. St. John's Key Players to Watch

Zuby Ejiofor, Forward, St. John’s Red Storm

Zuby Ejiofor is the leader for this St. John’s squad, both statistically and emotionally. He has a team-high 15.6 points, 7.2 rebounds, and 3.6 assists per game this season.

The senior has been even better at home, putting up 16.2 points, 7.8 rebounds, and 3.9 assists through 17 games. Ejiofor is looking to end his collegiate career with a bang before seeing where he falls in the upcoming NBA draft.

Georgetown vs. St. John's Prediction and Pick

St. John’s already beat Georgetown by a dozen points this season, and now the spread sits at -15.5 at Madison Square Garden. I was initially just going to take the UNDER, but I’m going to back the Red Storm at home.

St. John’s just beat Villanova by 32 as just -7.5 favorites, and Creighton by 29 as -12.5 favorites. The Red Storm should continue that type of play against Georgetown on Tuesday night.

Pick: St. John’s -15.5 (-110)
