Tennessee Basketball is set to host five-star power forward Caleb Wilson and four-star point guard Isaiah Denis on official visits this weekend. Wilson is the No. 5 overall player in the 2025 in the On3 Industry Ranking and Denis is ranked No. 56. 

Four-star shooting guard Amari Evans is expected to be at Tennessee this weekend on an unofficial visit. He has already taken an official visit to see the Vols this fall and is scheduled to announce his commitment decision on November 1.

Wilson, a 6-foot-9, 195-pound prospect out of Holy Innocents Episcopal School in Atlanta, is the No. 2 power forward in the class and the No. 1 player in the state of Georgia. 

Denis, listed a 6-foot-5, 170 pounds, attends Davidson Day School in Davidson, N.C. He’s the No. 11 point guard in the class and the No. 1 player in the state of North Carolina. 

Wilson reportedly canceled an Alabama visit earlier this month and replaced it with a North Carolina visit. He has also visited Kentucky and is expected to visit Georgia Tech next weekend. 

Denis visited Ohio State, Michigan and North Carolina in September and was at Wake Forest last week. 

Five-star combo guard Brayden Burries is an another high-profile Tennessee target who is expected to visit the Vols next weekend, for the Alabama football weekend. The Vols have made multiple trips to California to visit with Burries.

The 6-foot-4, 185-pounder, a Riverside, Calif., native, is the No. 12 overall prospect in the 2025 class. He’s ranked as the No. 1 combo guard nationally and the No. 2 overall player in the state of California. Burries has a connection to Tennessee through his mother, who played softball for the Lady Vols.

Tennessee in final three for four-star shooting guard Amari Evans

Evans is a prospect Tennessee seems to have momentum with. The Vols are in the final three for Evans alongside Pitt and Xavier.

The 6-foot-5, 204-pound prospect out of Pittsburgh is ranked No. 83 overall and is the No. 23 shooting guard in 2025 class. He’s ranked No. 12 overall in the state of Georgia, where he plays in the Overtime Elite league in Atlanta. 

Tennessee on Wednesday made the final seven for five-star power forward Chris Cenac. The Vols are still alive in the recruitment along with Arkansas, Auburn, Baylor, Houston, Kentucky and LSU

Tennessee currently has one commitment in the 2025 recruiting class, from four-star center Dewayne Brown. The 6-foot-9, 235-pound prospect out of Hoover, Alabama, committed to Tennessee on April 20.

Brown is ranked No. 101 overall in the On3 Industry Ranking and is the No. 8 center in the country and the No. 1 player in the state of Alabama. 

On3 Scouting Report — Caleb Wilson

Caleb Wilson has a great frame, good length and natural pop. He plays really well in a phone booth, efficient movements in tight spaces, shows the footwork to shake free with the ball in the half court. He needs to continue getting stronger, which will help his base and balance. He is explosive around the basket, has go-to comfort over his left shoulder with patience. He can push the break and plays with pace. He has a vast array of offensive moves, at multiple levels.
