St. John’s basketball prospect Jalen Bradberry has reclassified from the Class of 2021 to the Class of 2022.

If St. John’s fans were expecting the Red Storm to land a commitment from point guard Jalen Bradberry and see the New York native on the court soon, that’s going to have to wait at least another year.

Jake Weingarten of StockRisers first reported that Bradberry will be reclassifying from the Class of 2021 to the Class of 2022 on Saturday afternoon.

More from Storm The Paint

The 6-foot-3 guard picked up an offer from Mike Anderson and the Johnnies on May 15 but he also holds offers from Hofstra, Massachusetts, Youngstown State, Buffalo, Sienna, Bryant, Niagara, and Stony Brook.

More recently, Bradberry has gathered interest from Connecticut, VCU, Rutgers, and Georgetown, but has not officially picked up an offer from any of those schools.

The Buffalo, New York native stars for The Park School of Buffalo after transferring into the school last summer after leading Niagara Falls High School in his first two seasons in high school.

Jalen Bradberry also plays for the New Heights Youth AAU program, the same program that developed Julian Champagnie, a rising sophomore star on the Red Storm.

St. John’s was the first major conference program to offer the guard and now he joins a very crowded list of Class of 2022 prospects that the Red Storm have either offered or reached out to.

Mike Anderson has yet to land a commitment from a player in the Class of 2021 or Class of 2022 but the Red Storm seem to be on the verge of a couple of commitments from multiple players in both classes, although there are still obstacles remaining regarding the coronavirus pandemic with the NCAA recruiting rules and postponement and cancelation of many recruiting showcases around the country.
