St. John's Red Storm vs. UConn Huskies; A Big East Basketball Showdown

The No. 10 St. John’s Red Storm faced the UConn Huskies in a Big East men’s college basketball game on Sunday, February 23, 2025, at Madison Square Garden in New York City. The Red Storm entered the game with a strong record of 23-4, having won two consecutive games, including a dominant 82-58 victory over Seton Hall on February 19. UConn, with an 18-8 record, was coming off a 66-59 win over Butler. The two teams had previously met on February 7, with St. John’s securing a 68-62 victory.

St. John’s was led by senior guard Richmond, who averaged 12.7 points, 5.9 rebounds, and 5.1 assists per game, and junior forward Ejiofor, who contributed 13.9 points and 8.1 rebounds per game. UConn relied on freshman forward Liam McNeeley, who returned from injury in February and averaged 15.4 points and 6.6 rebounds per game. McNeeley had a standout performance in the previous matchup against St. John’s, recording 18 points and 11 rebounds.

The Red Storm were favored by 4.5 points, with the over/under set at 138.5 points. St. John’s had been strong at home, hitting the moneyline in 18 of their last 19 games at Madison Square Garden. However, UConn’s McNeeley was expected to play a key role, particularly on the boards, where he had been effective in recent games.

The game was a crucial matchup for both teams as they prepared for the upcoming conference tournaments and March Madness. St. John’s aimed to solidify their position as a top contender in the Big East, while UConn looked to avenge their earlier loss and build momentum heading into the postseason.
