Tennessee over the summer made the top 10 for Evans, who also had Georgetown, Illinois, Mississippi State, Ole Miss, Pitt, TCU, Texas A&M, Xavier, and Villanova on the list. Evans previously took an unofficial visit to see the Vols and had also been on an official visit to Pitt.

Tennessee last weekend hosted four-star shooting guard Darius Adams and five-star power forward Chris Cenac on official visits. The Vols previously had visits scheduled with four-star shooting guard Braylon Mullins, four-star small forward Tounde Yessoufou and four-star point guard Chance Mallory, but both of those visits have been cancelled.

On3 Scouting Report — Amari Evans
On3’s Jamie Shaw: Amari Evans has a good basketball frame with nice length and broad shoulders. He has nice positional size as a complimentary guard. Evans is a capable shooter with range beyond the arc. He is a solid secondary ball handler, able to restart possessions and get the ball where it needs to go. He can also defend at the point of attack or off the ball, being aggressive in the passing lanes. Consistency is the next step for Evans as he continues forward, that should be helped by finding a defined role for himself. A strong guard with flashes of dribbling, shooting, and passing has value in today’s game.
