ST. JOHN'S RED STORM NEWS

Joel Soriano - Warming up Monday Soriano (heel) is dressed and warming up ahead of Monday's game versus Michigan, Thomas Cavanagh of Road to the Garden reports.

Impact Soriano is warming up ahead of Monday's game, a promising sign that he will be able to suit up. The heel injury was also bothering him in the season opener, but he still played 32 minutes and scored 22 points, grabbed 11 rebounds and blocked three shots.

Rick Pitino is obsessed. He doesn't have time to stop The Hall of Fame coach is 71 ... and starting over at St. John's. Where is it he's trying to go?

Jordan Dingle - Reserve role not a problem Dingle logged 13 points (5-11 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT) and two blocks across his 20 minutes during the Red Storm's 90-74 win Tuesday against Stony Brook.

Impact Among the Red Storm's reserves, Dingle was their best scorer Tuesday. Dingle's scoring prowess should be no surprise, especially considering he averaged 23.4 points in his 2022-23 season with Pennsylvania. The question is how much of it can be shown in this new campaign. But if the 2023-24 Red Storm's first game is any indication, his scoring output will remain highly valuable for fantasy managers.

Chris Ledlum - Bursts onto scene Ledlum closed Tuesday's 90-74 victory over Stony Brook with 16 points (7-15 FG, 2-3 3Pt), 14 rebounds, four assists and two steals across 33 minutes.

Impact Ledlum wasted no time making his presence felt in his first Power Five game. A transfer from Harvard, Ledlum's fierce offensive rebounding appears to have no issue translating at a higher level. Given his usage Tuesday, he's a a candidate to continue supplying big numbers.

Daniss Jenkins - Does it all in win Jenkins closed Tuesday's 90-74 win over Stony Brook with 17 points (7-13 FG, 3-6 3Pt), seven rebounds, eight assists and one steal in 29 minutes.

Impact Jenkins seems to have made a good decision in following coach Rick Pitino from Iona to St. John's. The fourth-year guard trailed only Joel Soriano in scoring Tuesday, while representing the only member of the Red Storm to exceed four assists. He's the clear initiator of the offense.

Joel Soriano - Booms despite nagging injury Soriano (heel) registered 22 points (9-12 FG, 2-2 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 11 rebounds, two assists and three blocks across 32 minutes during Tuesday's 90-74 victory over Stony Brook.

Impact Soriano (heel) formed a physically imposing duo with Chris Ledlum (16 points, 14 rebounds) as St. John's dominated the interior. Soriano hit the first two threes of his collegiate career Tuesday, but it's unclear if that will become an notable part of his game. Coach Rick Pitino noted postgame that Soriano is dealing with lingering plantar fasciitis and a calf injury, which makes his status worth monitoring for Monday's game against Michigan.

Jordan Dingle - Set to play Tuesday Dingle (shoulder) is available for Tuesday's season opener against Stony Brook, Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports reports.

Impact Dingle has missed St. John's last two exhibition matches due to a shoulder injury but will play Tuesday. The senior guard transferred from Penn this offseason after averaging 23.4 points, 3.6 rebounds, 2.3 assists and 1.1 steals in 33.6 minutes across 28 appearances in 2022-23.

Joel Soriano - Probable for season opener Soriano (calf) is expected to be in the Red Storm's starting lineup for their game against Stony Brook on Nov. 7, per Roger Rubin of Newsday.

Impact Soriano participated in the Red Storm's team practice Monday. The college senior likely being part of their starting lineup again should not be surprising to fantasy managers, considering he averaged 15.2 points and 11.9 rebounds across his 33 games started as a junior student.

Jordan Dingle - Practice participant Monday Dingle (undisclosed) participated in the Red Storm's team practice Monday, according to Roger Rubin of Newsday.

Impact Dingle being able to practice Monday indicates an improved chance that he will be available when the Red Storm begin their 2023-24 season against Stony Brook on Nov. 7. According to head coach Rick Pitino, how much Dingle plays will depend on his week of practice.

Daniss Jenkins - Fails to make impact Jenkins had two points (0-4 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two rebounds, three assists and two steals in Sunday's 63-59 loss to Pace in a preseason scrimmage.

Impact Jenkins logged just 21 minutes, but he also picked up three fouls in his limited run. It was peculiar to see Jenkins so uninvolved offensively after attempting 13.6 shots per game at Iona last season. Losing to a Division II team in a scrimmage isn't ideal with St. John's regular-season opener on deck. Stony Brook comes to town Nov. 7.

OCTOBER 30, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Chris Ledlum - Looks rusty in scrimmage Ledlum had seven points (2-14 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 3-4 FT), 12 rebounds, two assists and two blocks over 34 minutes in Sunday's 63-59 loss to Division II Pace in an exhibition.

Impact Ledlum's St. John's debut was a letdown offensively, but it came while the Red Storm were without Joel Soriano (calf), RJ Luis (hand) and Jordan Dingle (undisclosed). The Harvard transfer logged a team-high minute total and hit the glass hard, and he should retain a sizable role even when St. John's is at full strength.
