Gillespie scores 17 to lead No. 20 Tennessee over Tennessee State 89-60

Ja’Kobi Gillespie scored 17 points to lead five players in double figures as No. 20 Tennessee beat Tennessee State 89-60

NOVEMBER 21, 2025 • Associated Press

Puts in 15 points Ament closed Thursday's 89-60 victory over Tennessee State with 15 points (3-10 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 7-8 FT), six rebounds, four assists and four steals across 21 minutes.

Impact The 15 points were a season-low for the 6-10 freshman, but his four steals were a season high. While he has been effective from the field, Ament's 3-pointers have not been dropping. He is hitting just 25 percent (6-of-24) from long range. The forward will look to find efficiency in Las Vegas at the Players Era Festival tournament with games against Rutgers and Houston.

Impact Ament had been limited in practice earlier in the week, but looked good in the blowout win over the Ospreys. The 6-10 freshman has consecutive games of five assists and has not been held below 18 points. As long as the ankle holds up, Ament can be counted on for production.

Logs limited practice Tuesday Ament, who's dealing with a minor left ankle injury, was a limited participant in Tuesday's practice as a precaution, Mike Wilson of the Knoxville News Sentinel reports.

Impact The star freshman, along with starting guard Bishop Boswell (foot), was limited in Monday's practice as a precaution. Ament can be considered probable for Wednesday's game against North Florida. However, with Tennessee expected to win easily, Tennessee could play it safe with Ament if he's not at full health.

Ament has 18 points and 9 rebounds to lead No. 18 Tennessee past Mercer 76-61

Nate Ament scored 18 points and had nine rebounds to lead No. 18 Tennessee to a 76-61 victory over Mercer in the season opener for both teams

NOVEMBER 4, 2025 • Associated Press

Goes for 18 in debut Ament ended with 18 points (6-11 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 5-7 FT), nine rebounds and one assist over 29 minutes during Monday's 76-61 victory over Mercer.

Impact Ament is an advanced offensive player. The 6-10 freshman did a nice job on the defensive glass (eight defensive rebounds) and played with assurance in the relatively easy win over the Bears. Ament should lead the Vols in scoring and will get his fair share of double-doubles.

NOVEMBER 3, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Double-double against Duke Ament had 14 points (5-19 FG, 0-5 3Pt, 4-6 FT) and 10 rebounds across 33 minutes in Sunday's 83-76 exhibition loss to Duke.

Impact While it wasn't the best shooting day for the five-star freshman, prospective fantasy managers were able to get a glimpse of the volume the power forward will be allotted, as he played the second-most minutes and attempted the second-most shots out of any Tennessee player. The early-season matchups will get much easy for Ament, as he and the Vols will open the year against Mercer (Nov. 3) and Northern Kentucky (Nov. 8).
