No. 13 St. John's Back In Big East Title Game After 78-68 Win Over Seton Hall

Scores 15 versus Georgetown Sanon finished Tuesday's 72-69 victory over Georgetown with 15 points (5-11 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 2-2 FT), six rebounds and two assists in 25 minutes.

Impact Sanon made his second consecutive appearance of the bench Tuesday, this time providing a much-needed offensive spark. He scored 15 points for the fourth time this season and for the first time since Dec. 16, thanks in large part to him hitting three triples. He also grabbed six rebounds for just the third time this season, all of which came on the defensive glass. While his production has dropped over the second half of the season, he still has an important role off the bench for the Red Storm with the postseason looming.

13 points in Wednesday's win Sanon ended with 13 points (5-7 FG, 3-3 3Pt, 0-1 FT) and two rebounds across 19 minutes during Wednesday's 92-70 win over Butler.

Impact Sanon scored double digit points Wednesday for the first time since Dec. 31, thanks in large part to hitting all three of his shots from beyond the arc. He started off the season fairly well but has struggled since moving to the bench, though this performance gives some hope that he could rediscover his early-season form. He'll look to keep the momentum going Tuesday at DePaul.

Coming off bench Sanon is not in the starting lineup for Wednesday's game versus Georgetown, Zach Braziller of the New York Post reports.

Impact Sanon will be brought off the bench for the first time since Nov. 15. He's averaged 12.2 points over his last six games and should still see a regular share of minutes despite his out of the first unit.

Scores 12 in Saturday's loss Sanon chipped in 12 points (0-5 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 12-12 FT), two rebounds and two steals over 19 minutes before fouling out of Saturday's 78-66 loss to Kentucky.

Impact Sanon made his eighth consecutive start Saturday and contributed double digit points in his third straight outing. He remarkably did so without making a single shot from the field, instead earning all of his points by going a perfect 12 for 12 from the free throw line. He did not do much else versus the Wildcats, in part because he only logged 19 minutes of playing time. While his ability to get to the charity stripe was impressive, he'll look to hit more shots from the field Tuesday versus Harvard.
