RJ Luis Gets Extra Year to Return to LSU | College Basketball News

RJ Luis, the former St. John’s standout and Celtics preseason player, is getting a second chance at college hoops — heading to LSU thanks to a preliminary injunction that grants him an extra year of eligibility. A six-foot-seven forward who was Big East Player of the Year and a Second-Team All-American, Luis went undrafted in 2025, bounced between the Jazz, Celtics, and their G-League affiliate before his pro dreams stalled. With the NCAA’s new five-year rule (no redshirts), players like Luis — who used their fourth year for pro pursuits — can now return to finish their college careers. This is wild college basketball right now. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
