The Tennessee Volunteers basketball team and head coach Rick Barnes sure seem to be in a world of trouble for the upcoming basketball season. Walk-on redshirt freshman point guard Braxton Bonds asked for a release from the team and it has been granted, according to 247 Sports.
This leaves first year head coach Barnes in some trouble as the team now only has one true point guard on the team — incoming freshman Lamonte’ Turner, who hasn’t even made it to campus yet as he is expected to enroll in July.
With the departure of Bonds, Turner will likely get majority of the minutes at the helm of the Vols offense.
