John's players are entering the transfer portal. The transfer portal allows college athletes to seek opportunities at other institutions. Both players are eligible to transfer as undergraduates. The transfer portal has become a key mechanism in college basketball for roster turnover. Schools like St. John's must now recruit replacements to maintain competitiveness in the Big East Conference.

Steps and Implications Players entering the portal retain their eligibility if they transfer to another Division I school. The team will look to fill these spots through the portal, high school recruiting, or incoming freshmen during the offseason.

These transfers affect the program's depth, particularly on the bench. No further details on potential destinations for the players have been reported.
