Forward Nate Ament has committed to the University of Tennessee. Ament is a top-five recruit in the class of 2025 and was the top uncommitted recruit.
"Coach [Rick] Barnes sees me as a one-and-done type player," Ament said. "He has done it before with Kevin Durant. He sees me as that kind of guy for his program. I built a great relationship with the coaching staff. I trust them a lot, and they have big goals for me. I think they'll do a great job of developing me as a player and a young man. I trust the coaches to help me get to the next level."
Ament is a 6-foot-10 forward, who has solid perimeter and interior skills. He's a projected top-five pick in the 2026 NBA Draft.
