Summer League starts in Las Vegas today and runs through July 20. Game schedules and TV information are available at NBA.com and ESPN. I found 6 participants who finished their college careers at St. John's.

Daniss Jenkins, Pistons
Chris Ledlum, Rockets
RJ Luis Jr, Jazz
Kadary Richmond, Wizards
Aaron Scott, Celtics
Deivon Smith, Hawks

That doesn't include someone like David Jones-Garcia, who played his junior year for St. John's but last played for Memphis.

Of the 4 undrafted rookies, RJ Luis Jr signed a two-way contract with the Utah Jazz on Monday, which means he'll spend a little time next season on the main roster, but most of it with the Salt Lake City Stars, Utah's G League affiliate.


Kadary Richmond has an Exhibit 10 deal with the Washington Wizards; earlier reports that he had a two-way contract were erroneous. He'll be invited to Wizards training camp in the fall and stand a very good chance of playing for their G League affiliate, the Capital City Go-Go.



Aaron Scott and Deivon Smith are signed only for Summer League. This means that they are part of the team in Las Vegas and are insured against injury, and also receive a "reasonable expense allowance" to cover incidentals while in town.

 
Other BE guys noted too...

Not your fault, but it's always weird to see how images get cropped when Twitter/X posts get embedded on a bulletin board like this. The entire bottom row of Kadary Richmond, Aaron Scott, Deivon Smith, Thomas Sorber, and Jahmyl Telfort disappeared.

Here's the full image:
