What is Tennessee getting in Olivier Robinson-Nkamhoua? Here’s what Rick Barnes thinks

Tennessee basketball landed a commitment this week, bringing in four-star forward Olivier Robinson-Nkamhoua. The 6-8 big man soared in recruiting rankings, coming back from a leg injury that cost him his entire junior season after relocating from Finland. He came back strong in his senior campaign, drawing interest from several teams in power conferences.

Robinson-Nkamhoua lands as the 110th ranked player in the class, perhaps patching a hole in the roster left by the potential transfer of Derrick Walker.

With the papers officially in, Tennessee head coach Rick Barnes offered his thoughts on his newest player.
