St. John's Pursues Dioubate, Bolsters Roster

St. Johns Red Storm is pursuing Mouhamed Dioubate, a six-foot-seven forward from Kentucky, as a top transfer target for their 2026-27 roster. Dioubate, a Queens native, is ranked 72nd overall and 8th among small forwards in the transfer portal. He had a strong junior year at Kentucky, averaging 8.8 points and 5.5 rebounds per game. St. Johns sees him as a replacement for outgoing forward Dillon Mitchell. Virginia is also in the mix, but Dioubate is a hot commodity with schools like Creighton, Baylor, Maryland, Mississippi State, and Providence also interested.
