Nate Ament - College Basketball News & Rumors

Struggles against Wolverine size Ament fouled out of Sunday's 95-62 loss to Michigan after recording seven points (2-12 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 3-4 FT), six rebounds, two assists and one block across 31 minutes.

Impact Ament fouled out for the first time this season. The 6-10 freshman just couldn't find his spots against the tough Wolverine defense. In four NCAA Tournament games, the forward averaged 10.3 points on 33.3 percent from the field and 4.3 rebounds. Those numbers were well below his season averages of 17.0 points on 40.5 percent from the field and 6.4 rebounds. Should he test the NBA draft process, Ament will likely be a lottery pick.

Ament scores 18 as Tennessee beats Iowa State 76-62 to advance to third straight Elite Eight

Nate Ament finished with 18 points, Ja’Kobi Gillespie scored 16, and Tennessee beat Iowa State 76-62 to advance to the Elite Eight for the third straight year

MARCH 28 • Associated Press

Scores 18 through foul trouble Ament finished Friday's 76-62 win over Iowa State with 18 points (6-10 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 3-4 FT), four rebounds, three assists, two blocks and one steal in 25 minutes.

Impact Ament has not fouled out of a game this season, but had to sit a large portion of the second half after accruing his fourth foul. Despite limited minutes, the 6-10 freshman had an effective game. Against Michigan on Sunday, he will likely be matched up against Yaxel Lendeborg who is of similar size but much stronger. Ament can prove he is ready for the next level by being effective against the huge Wolverines.

Goes for double-double Ament posted 12 points (1-13 FG, 0-5 3Pt, 10-12 FT), 11 rebounds, two assists and two steals in 30 minutes during Friday's 75-68 loss to Vanderbilt.

Impact Ament had just his second double-double and first since Nov. 17. He consistently grabbed between five and nine boards, but was rarely able to get those extra rebounds. He had a rough game from the field in his second game back from an ankle injury. Tennessee still should get a decent seed in the NCAA Tournament and will find out their fate on Sunday.
