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

The last game of the 2023-24 NCAA regular season is upon us, and the St. John’s Red Storm basketball team are entering it on a four-game win streak.

Today, they’ll take on the Georgetown Hoyas, who have a 9-21 record. The Hoyas sit at tenth in the Big East, while the Red Storm have managed to come back from a season that seemed as good as dead and is currently tied for fifth in the conference — a position that, if they manage to hold onto it, will punch their ticket to the NCAA tournament for the first time since 2019.

A win today at Madison Square Garden could all but ensure that metro New York is represented in March Madness. Per the New York Post’s Ted Holmlund, “If St. John’s beats Georgetown on Saturday, the only scenario in which it doesn’t finish fifth is if Villanova loses to Creighton and Providence upsets UConn.”

The game is a must-win — and a must-watch for fans of the Red Storm hoping to see their team in this year’s tournament. If you don’t have cable, the game is still easy to watch thanks to Sling TV. Keep reading for everything you need to know to tune in.
