St. John’s is in search of win number 15 at home against DePaul tonight. The Red Storm, likely under consideration for an NCAA berth, will want a few more wins under their belt to make what seemed like a remote possibility early in the Big East season into a plausibility.
But the Red Storm cannot afford a loss to free falling DePaul, losers of five straight games.
DePaul was missing two talented players last game against Seton Hall - contest where they played good enough defense to win, but executed poorly on offense in the beginning and especially the end of the game.
