It's now official.
Bronx native Bashir Ahmed and German forward Richard Freudenberg both signed their National Letters of Intent to St. John's on Wednesday afternoon. They will join four-star point guard Shamorie Ponds in what is expected to be one of the top ranked recruiting classes in the Big East.
6'7" forward, Ahmed, currently attends Hutchinson Community College in Kansas and earned a slot as an NJCAA First Team All-America. The prospect from New York averaged 20.1 points per game, 8.1 rebounds and 2.2 assists, showing off his versatility and strength from the wing position.
"Bashir certainly adds a new dimension to our roster," Chris Mullin said in the school's press release.
