Former St. John’s basketball star LJ Figueroa saw his NCAA Tournament end in the Sweet 16.
After a chaotic season, former St. John’s basketball star LJ Figueroa saw his NCAA Tournament run come to an end in the Sweet 16.
Figueroa came to St. John’s as a sophomore from Odessa Junior College (TX) and remained in Queens for two seasons before entering the 2020 NBA Draft, withdrawing his name, and opting to enter the transfer portal.
The Lawrence, Massachusetts native entered the transfer portal after his sophomore season following the departure of head coach Chris Mullin, who Figueroa originally committed to play for, and remained with the Johnnies for one season with Mike Anderson.
