A men's basketball player that signed two professional contracts has committed to play at LSU.

ESPN reports that former St. John's star RJ Luis has committed to the Tigers, although there is a long eligibility fight ahead of him and the school.

The 2025 Big East Player of the Year entered the NBA Draft last summer and went undrafted before signing a two-way contract with the Utah Jazz.

He was then traded to the Boston Celtics in August in exchange for Georges Niang and two future second-round picks.

He was waived by the Celtics and then Boston's G League affiliate before playing a game.

The NCAA has previously ruled that players who sign NBA contracts are ineligible.
