13 points, eight assists against IU Zeigler went for 13 points (2-10 FG, 2-10 3Pt, 7-8 FT), eight assists, three rebounds and a steal in Sunday's exhibition loss to Indiana.

Impact It certainly wasn't the shooting night Zeigler was hoping for, but he was able to do a good job finding open teammates per usual. Zeigler came to Tennessee as more of a defensive specialist, but now as a senior he is going to be asked to shoulder a lot of the offensive burden, especially with Dalton Knecht no longer in the fold. The Vols will kick off the regular season on Monday against Gardner-Webb.

MARCH 3 • ASSOCIATED PRESS

Career-best 14 dimes in victory Zeigler totaled nine points (3-10 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), nine rebounds, 14 assists and four steals in 35 minutes during Saturday's 86-51 victory over Texas A&M.

Impact It was a new career-high assist mark for Zeigler, who is turning up his peripheral production for a surging Tennessee team with Final Four aspirations. While the junior's scoring can be hit-or-miss at times, his career-best 5.8 apg mark is vital to the Tennessee offense. He's also been stellar defensively, recording at least one steal in each of his last seven games and averaging 3.0 spg over that span.

Expected to go in opener Zeigler (knee) is expected to play in Monday's game against Tennessee Tech, Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports reports.

Impact Zeigler suffered a torn ACL at the end of the regular season last year. It was unclear whether or not he would miss any time to start the 2023-24 campaign. He did not play in the exhibition game, but will give it a go in the regular season opener. Expect the Vols to be very careful with their star point guard. It wouldn't be surprising to see him come off the bench and be on a minutes restriction.
