Coming off a shaky ten-point win over Towson in their first exhibition game last week, Rick Pitino and the Red Storm have one more scrimmage to work on some issues before the season tips off in two weeks. They will get a genuine test this weekend as they face former St. John’s commit Yaxel Lendeborg and the seventh-ranked Michigan Wolverines at Madison Square Garden to conclude their preseason slate.
