LSU has agreed to a deal with 2025 Big East Player of the Year RJ Luis Jr., according to a report from Matt Zenitz and Chris Hummer of 247Sports.
Luis, who was a consensus Second-Team All-American for St. John’s two seasons ago, entered the 2025 NBA draft and was not selected. He signed a two-way deal with the Utah Jazz and was traded to the Boston Celtics later that summer in exchange for Georges Niang and two future second-round picks. Boston waived Luis and then signed him to an Exhibit 10 contract that allowed him to join the Maine Celtics—the team’s G League affiliate. After suffering a groin injury that required surgery, Luis was waived again.
