The St. John’s basketball program landed a verbal commitment from Chris Ledlum.

Add another player to the St. John’s basketball roster after Chris Ledlum announced his commitment to the Red Storm on Wednesday.

Ledlum, a Harvard transfer, originally committed to Tennessee in May over St. John’s and Indiana but surprisingly left the program last week to reenter the transfer portal.

The Johnnies were always on the radar for the Brooklyn native.

VolQuest, the On3 Sports site dedicated to the Tennessee Volunteers, reported that Ledlum told head coach Rick Barnes that he wanted to return closer to home and his decision took the coaching staff by surprise.
