With Patrick Ewing absent from Madison Square Garden, Georgetown falls hard against St. John’s

At that point, Georgetown suffered from another in a season-long series of defensive outages, allowing St. John’s free run of the paint and additional easy looks from three. The third such long shot from Dylan Addae-Wusu, all of them makes, turned this into a 63-43 game and all but ended the suspense. A Georgetown run, keyed by Kaiden Rice, who finished with 19 points, followed to close the St. John’s deficit to seven.
