Something’s not right with John Egbunu, and how it will be fixed is unknown.

The redshirt junior scored his first bucket of Saturday night’s contest — a ferocious, two-handed slam — nearly seven minutes deep into the second half of the Gators’ battle with the Volunteers.

It was his only basket.

And despite No. 24 Florida’s clutch performance in its 83-70 win over a physical Tennessee team in the O’Connell Center, UF’s 6-foot-11, 255-pound center registered just two points, three turnovers, four fouls and failed to grab a rebound in a season-low six minutes of action off the bench.
