Texas basketball prepares for scrimmage against St. John's in NYC
Summary

The Texas Longhorns face St. John's in a scrimmage at Madison Square Garden on Sunday at 11 a.m. Texas, coached by Sean Miller, looks to establish chemistry with a roster featuring 11 new players, including five transfers and six freshmen.
