How to watch St. John’s Basketball vs. DePaul on Sling TV

With just two games left in the regular season and less than two weeks before Selection Sunday, the St. John’s Red Storm are sitting firmly on the bubble.

What started as a disappointing season for the Red Storm during Rick Pitino’s inaugural season as head coach has turned around as of late, and their postseason hopes have gone from dashed to not-dead-yet. Following a postgame tirade that saw Pitino hurling insults at his players, who blew a 19-point lead in the game against Seton Hall, the coach took responsibility for the spiraling season.

The Red Storm are coming off two big wins and are decidedly alive again — hoping to make the NCAA tournament for the first time since 2019.

Today — Tuesday, March 5 — the Red Storm will play their penultimate game against the DePaul Blue Demons on DePaul’s home court in Chicago, IL. The game is a must-win for the Red Storm if the team intends to keep their March Madness hopes alive. The team enters the match with a 17-12 record to DePaul’s 3-26.

The pivotal game will be airing coast-to-coast, so no matter where in the United States you are, you can tune in to watch the Red Storm take on the Blue Demons. Keep reading for everything you need to know about streaming the game on Sling TV.
