DePaul (+5.5) over St. John’s:
The Johnnies took the first meeting by five, behind Julian Champagnie’s 34 points and 16 rebounds. The Blue Demons won by five in Chicago, behind Javon Freeman-Liberty’s 39 points. Expect the two stars to trade buckets in another tight battle between a St. John’s squad that struggles as a home favorite (6-9) and a DePaul team that has won three of its past four games, covered five straight, and lost only one game by more than seven points since Jan. 11.
