Tennessee has seen their fair share of one-and-dones over the past two seasons. Kennedy Chandler, Keon Johnson and Jaden Springer all made their one year appearance in college before heading on to the league. They very likely will have their fourth one and done player in the last three years this season with Julian Phillips.
The 6-8 wing screams NBA potential. His length, athletic ability, emerging outside shot and versatility will have teams very interested in him this spring. It’s an interesting spot for an 18 year old to be, but Phillips is making the most of it, per his new head coach.
