Tennessee Basketball Adds Transfer Chaz Lanier to Roster for Next Season
Rick Barnes added some depth to Tennessee basketball's roster with the recent announcement from Chaz Lanier.
Coming off a successful season at North Florida, Lanier showcased impressive shooting percentages and efficiency on the court.
His decision to join the Volunteers was influenced by the fit, play style, and the opportunity to develop under Coach Rick Barnes.
After confirming his transfer on social media, Lanier chose Tennessee over Kentucky and BYU.
Despite initially entering the NBA draft, Lanier decided to withdraw and pursue college basketball, citing valuable feedback from the NBA G League's Elite Camp.
Throughout his college career, Lanier showed significant improvement, culminating in being named to the Atlantic Sun All-Conference first team.
Ranked as a four-star recruit in the transfer portal, Lanier is poised to make an impact at Tennessee.
His high school career may not have garnered rankings, but Lanier's senior year at Ensworth High School displayed his scoring ability.
