Former Tennessee basketball players Josiah-Jordan James and Santiago Vescovi inked deals with the NBA.
The Tennessee Volunteers recently just saw Dalton Knecht go in the first round of the NBA draft to the Los Angeles Lakers with the 15th overall pick. Now two more former Volunteers have inked their own NBA deals. Josiah-Jordan James signed with the Indiana Pacers and Santiago Vescovi signed with the Golden State Warriors.
Last season, James averaged 8.4 points, 1.4 steals and 6.4 rebounds per game and shot 40% from the field. Vescovi averaged 6.3 points, 1.1 steals, 2.5 assists and 3.7 rebounds per game and shot 37% from the field. It was actually a down year for Vescovi as he averaged double digit points during his freshman, junior and senior seasons.
