St. John’s, Rick Pitino impressed by freshman Kelvin Odih’s ‘motor’

The biggest surprise of St. John’s summer isn’t one of the seven transfers.

It isn’t any of the four holdovers.

It is Kelvin Odih, a four-star guard from Providence who committed to coach Rick Pitino’s program in late April.

A former West Virginia pledge, the 6-foot-4 Odih has been practicing with the first team, which has also included Zuby Ejiofor, Bryce Hopkins, Dillon Mitchell and Oziyah Sellers.
