Harrison arrived at St. John’s from the Houston area with the reputation of a player with unlimited shooting range and boundless competitive energy. He needed to learn to harness both, which he did through a freshman season in which he 16.8 points on 36 percent shooting on 3-pointers.
Now comes the next step. He is the most experienced returning player on a young, deep and talented St. John’s squad, which opens the season on Nov. 13 with a tough game against Detroit.
This should be Harrison’s team.
“I would look at film of myself sometimes last season and think, ‘What is that guy doing?’ ’’ Harrison said. “But I learned a lot last season and this summer. I expect to be more of a leader. I have to be for this team.’’
