KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (AP) Tennessee guard James Daniel III finally has the chance to deliver a follow-up performance to his 2015-16 NCAA scoring title, an opportunity that essentially eluded him last season.

After an ankle injury caused Daniel to play just two games last season at Howard, the 6-foot graduate transfer brings experience and offense to Tennessee's backcourt.

"I wanted to go on the biggest stage for my last year and try to pursue my hopes and dreams since I've been a little kid, which was to get to the NBA," Daniel said.
