Pitino’s team also hosted Stanford transfer guard Oziyah Sellers, North Carolina transfer guard and Bronx, NY native Ian Jackson and Cincinnati transfer forward Dillon Mitchell. Lee averaged 16.9 ppg, 6.1 rpg and 5.5 apg and is one of the top available point guards in the portal. Florida is also heavily in the mix for Lee, who is visiting the school on Tuesday. The Gators won the NCAA championship over Houston last Monday night. And sophomore guard Thomas Haugh played high school ball with Lee at Perkiomen (PA) School and is recruiting Lee to join him with the Gators, per the Gainesville Sun. Haugh led Perkiomen to their first state championship win in 2023, averaging 19 points, 9.6 rebounds, and 4.1 assists while adding 52 steals and 60 blocks that year. Lee finished up in 2022 at the school and did not play on that team. Lee also visited Kansas.

Princeton transfer point guard Xaivian Lee is visiting Florida on Tuesday and is still considering St. John’s and Kansas, along with Florida, according to his agent, George Langberg.
An earlier report that he was down to two schools is incorrect.
The 6-4 junior visited St. John’s over the weekend.
“We need two guards,” St. John’s coach Rick Pitino said at the Final Four. “We got to bring in two guards, but we need a point guard.”
