Looks like a great get. He wants the coaching. Reminds meet of Aaron Scott.

Great job Matt and the coaching staff.

THIS IS IT!

from his agent-

"New York City, Madison Square Garden, Rick Pitino. If we weren't the first to take it, I'd envy the person who did," Malloy said.

Who else that agent rep? Lol

Would love to add Jamir Watkins. Do those in the know think he can play with Sanon?
My opinion is Watkins can, as he brings the 6'7 point-forward skillset that is so valued in the NBA

Welcome aboard.

Matt did tremendous leg work nailing it down early, a shooter to boot. Don’t drink the CA water Sonon, it may be cause our poor SJ shooting for ages.

Dev Smith did great upping tempo at both ends and Sanon not only a born shooter/scorer, but also adept at tempo setting apparently, great get!

Awesome! Made for Pitino type player! He’s going to be a Garden favorite!

Best thing about Sanon is that he’s a freshman. Kid has crazy upside it seems. Imagine him after a full offseason with Pitino.

WOW! Living on the west coast, what news to wake up to.

I did not see this happening so quickly, especially without a ton of smoke about visits and all. Amazing!

Hope next season goes great and we're following NBA draft really closely, since him coming back would be huge

Best thing about him is that he becomes a sophomore…at St. John’s!

Sanon seems to be one of the prizes in the early portal class and love it that he jumped quickly to choose St. John's. Glad we can shift from disappointment over the season's end to excitement around the year ahead.

Welcome aboard Joson!
