St. John’s men’s basketball 2026-27 player preview: Reed Bailey
The fifth-year power forward is hoping for a return to form in an up-tempo Red Storm system.
St. John’s has added 6-foot-10 forward Reed Bailey, a former three-star recruit from Harvard, Massachusetts. Entering his fifth collegiate season, Bailey aims to rediscover the form that made him a standout in the transfer portal. Last season, Bailey posted 8.3 points and 3.4 rebounds while shooting 57% from the field while playing for Indiana.
With his family having a history in athletics, Bailey was not heavily recruited before joining Davidson where he excelled, being named Atlantic-10 Most Improved Player and First-Team All-Atlantic-10 after his junior season. Bailey’s unique skill set, including his ability to move fluidly and create scoring opportunities, makes him an attractive addition to St. John’s, who are looking to bolster their roster with a player who can thrive in their faster-paced system.
