Nate Ament - Re-injures ankle Head coach Rick Barnes revealed that Ament (ankle) not only tweaked his knee but reaggravated his previously tweaked ankle during Saturday's 71-69 loss to Alabama, per Terry Lamber...
Impact Barnes indicated that Ament re-injured the ankle he reportedly turned during last week's game against Missouri. The 6-foot-10 freshman went down after going into a fight for the ball in the first half and despite returning briefly in the second half, was subsequently subbed out for the remainder of the contest. Ament has been a superstar for the Vols this season, averaging 17.4 points and 6.4 rebounds per game across 29 contests. Despite alluding to Ament's toughness, Barnes made it clear the team isn't sure whether he will be able to return for Tennessee's upcoming game against South Carolina on Tuesday.

Clarence Massamba - Unavailable against Tide Massamba (hip) was declared unavailable for Saturday's 69-71 loss to Alabama prior to tip-off, per Sam Granville of WATE-TV.

The 6-foot-5 freshman has played a small role for the Vols this season, averaging just 4.1 minutes per game across nine appearances. His next chance will come against South Carolina on Tuesday.

Labaron Philon Jr. - Nails go-ahead bucket against Vols Philon produced 23 points (9-14 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 4-5 FT), one rebound and two assists in 28 minutes during Saturday's 71-69 win over Tennessee.
Impact After missing Wednesday's game against Mississippi State with an undisclosed injury, Philon came off the bench here for the first time all season, but he ended up seeing a relatively typical workload. He was second on the team with 23 points and even hit the go-ahead jumper with 22.8 seconds remaining to cap off Alabama's comeback (they were down a dozen at half). It appears Philon should be good to resume his regular role when Alabama heads to Georgia on Tuesday.

Impact With backcourt counterpart Labaron Philon coming off the bench after missing a game earlier this week due to injury, Wrightsell knew he had to step up, and step up he did. The senior ended up with the best scoring total of his three-year run with the Tide, and he's now recorded 17.3 ppg over his last six games.
