One consistent theme I've heard out of Queens: Malik Ellison has been arguably St. John's most improved player since end of season. #SJUBB

Btw, my guy Happy said this weeks ago.

May be wrong but think happy said he had been the best player not most improved. Malik had tons of room for improvement.

If he was our best player over the summer that would kind of also make him the most improved don't you think ?

Im saying that happy was going out on a limb where as Rothstein wasn't making much of a bold statement

Yankuba Sima finished with six points, five rebounds, four steals in 21 min for Spain. They are advancing to the Euro Final. #sjubb

Sima continues to be quiet on the offensive end but once again his defense was critical to Spain advancing. #

It's been evident throughout this entire tournament: Sima has major work to do to perfect his left hand. #sjubb
 
I imagine that if Ellison really enjoyed playing here last season, the prospect of Simon stealing minutes in 17-18 must have really lit a fire under him. Combine that with genetics and getting that freshman year under your belt, and the potential for him to be good is really high.

Thanks for the continuous updates. Four months until the first game , and of course a lot can happen , but what the European Championships have shown us is that no one should expect a huge improvement from either Mussini or Sima this season. I am counting on a small improvement from both as they now have back up and have less of a load to carry.
 
A lot of posters were calling for Ellison to transfer 6 games into his college career. I think he's going to make some people eat some crow in these next 3 years
