Cincinnati forward Dillon Mitchell is the latest player to join Hall of Fame coach Rick Pitino at St. John's, the Red Storm announced Wednesday. The 6-foot-8 Mitchell averaged 9.9 points and 6.9 rebounds last season for the Bearcats.

Former North Carolina guard Ian Jackson signed with St. John's in the transfer portal, he announced in an Instagram post Monday. Jackson is a Bronx native and went to high school in New York. He was listed as the No. 4 shooting guard and No. 8 prospect in the country as part of the 2024 recruiting class, per 247Sports' composite rankings.
