Josiah-Jordan James - Bounces back in Sunday's winJames provided nine points (2-6 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 4-4 FT), six rebounds, two assists and two steals over 20 minutes during Sunday's 94-62 win over East Tennessee State.
ImpactAfter failing to be much of a factor in the season opener, James bounced back and posted a solid overall effort in his second straight start. The junior is currently averaging 5.5 points and 5.5 rebounds while shooting just 21.4 percent overall from the field across the first two games this year.

Santiago Vescovi - Held in check SundayVescovi posted seven points (3-11 FG, 1-7 3Pt), four rebounds, two assists and three steals across 24 minutes during Sunday's 94-62 win over East Tennessee State.
ImpactVescovi was held in check by the Pirates' defense, as the guard was held to just seven points after coming off a season-opening 20-point outing against UT Martin. The junior is currently posting 13.5 points and 4.5 rebounds while shooting 37.5 percent overall.

John Fulkerson - 10 boards in returnFulkerson provided six points (2-6 FG, 2-2 FT), 10 rebounds, three assists and two blocks across 22 minutes during Sunday's 94-62 victory over East Tennessee State.
ImpactFulkerson broke his thumb in late-October and missed the season opener as a result, but the sixth-year center was back in the starting five for Sunday's lopsided victory. The Vols only needed limited run from Fulkerson in this one, but that's likely to change Saturday when they're projected as slight underdogs against a tough Villanova team on a neutral court.

Jonas Aidoo - Back in actionAidoo (illness) ended Sunday's 94-62 win over East Tennessee State with no counting stats across two minutes.
ImpactAidoo missed the first game of the season while out with a non-COVID related illness, and while he took the court Sunday, it was in a very minor role. As long as John Fulkerson is healthy, there likely won't be many minutes to go around for the freshman forward.
