Tennessee had another tune-up game on Sunday afternoon — one that they had no problems with. The Volunteers handled ETSU with ease, winning by 32 points.
Olivier Nkamhoua was a focal point early on, even with the return of John Fulkerson. Tennessee really worked the post to start the game, and Nkamhoua responded. Back to the basket or simply finishing off a dump-off assist, he was heavily involved in the offensive plan, pushing Tennessee out to an early lead.
Tennessee jumped out to a 26-13 lead, but ETSU made a run of their own to claw back in.
