The Butler Bulldogs and St. John's Red Storm tip off at 4:30 ET and both squads have received a much-needed reprieve.
Butler guard Tyler Lewis and St. John's forward Yankuba Sima have each been okayed by their respective programs and will both play in this afternoon's contest in New York. Such news has been confirmed by both programs on Saturday afternoon:
Tyler Lewis is dressed and will play today at St. John's. He has missed the last four games due to a concussion.
