MARQUETTE PROBABLE LINEUP
- Nigel James (13.5 ppg, 2.8 rpg, 4.0 apg, 1.6 spg)
- Adrien Stevens (5.7 ppg, 2.2 rpg, 1.2 apg)
- Chase Ross (15.5 ppg, 4.2 rpg, 3.2 apg, 2.2 spg)
- Royce Parham (10.0 ppg, 4.7 rpg)
- Ben Gold (8.3 ppg, 6.4 rpg)
MARQUETTE INJURY NOTES: Redshirt junior guard Sean Jones missed the last three games with a foot issue. He was wearing a walking boot at the Villanova game, which means I’m pretty sure he’s not playing until he’s not wearing that any more. Adrien Stevens was listed as Questionable ahead of the Villanova game, but started and played 31 minutes with a sleeve on one of his knees.
ST. JOHN’S PROBABLE LINEUP
- Oziyah Sellers (10.9 ppg, 3.4 rpg, 2.3 apg)
- Ian Jackson (11.1 ppg, 2.7 rpg, 1.2 apg)
- Bryce Hopkins (13.3 ppg, 4.9 rpg, 2.4 apg, 1.1 spg)
- Dillon Mitchell (8.6 ppg, 6.1 rpg, 2.4 apg, 1.2 spg)
- Zuby Ejiofor (15.8 ppg, 7.5 rpg, 3.1 apg, 1.4 spg, 2.2 bpg)
ST. JOHN’S PROBABILITY NOTE: Head coach Rick Pitino has used six different starting lineups this season. This is the one he used last time out against Creighton, which is 1) the same one he used the game before that, 2) just the eighth time this season he’s kept the same starters from one game to the next, and 3) the same starting lineup that was on the court for the tip of their season opener against Quinnipiac.
