Hoops Recruiting: Two prospects to take visits to Tennessee, Vols make top eight for four-star PG
Tennessee Basketball has scheduled official visits with two elite prospects and is in the final eight for another. The Vols this fall will host both Chance Mallory and Braylon Mullins on official visits while Chance Mallory has Tennessee in his final eight.
Lewis is a 6-foot-3, 170-pound point guard prospect in the class of 2025. He’s a consensus four-star recruit and is ranked No. 40 overall in the On3 Industry Ranking. He’s the No. 6 point guard in the class and the No. 1 player in Washington DC, where he is a rising senior at Sidwell Friends School.
His final eight is Auburn, Duke, Kentucky, Michigan, North Carolina, Syracuse, Tennessee, and UConn. Lewis has already taken unofficial visits to Kentucky and UConn and has an official visit scheduled at North Carolina on October 4.
“I’d like to start taking my official visits basically as soon as the summer is over,” Lewis told On3’s Joe Tipton. “June is kind of hectic with the NBPA Camp and then the two live periods. So after July, once Peach Jam is over, I’m looking to start going on my official visits. My birthday is October, so I was thinking committing then would be cool, but I don’t want to rush things.
“The culture of the school will be big for me. I want to see how they talk to the top guy, their second guy, their thirteenth guy. See how they treat their managers and everyone in the program. The roster will be big too. WIth the portal and everything going on there, I want to go into a family environment where I know the coaches are invested in me.”
Four-Star Point Guard Chance Mallory
Four-star point guard Chance Mallory will take an official visit to Tennessee the weekend of October 12, when Tennessee Football hosts Florida at Neyland Stadium.
The 5-foot-9, 170-pound prospect out of Charlottesville, Va., is another consensus four-star recruit. He’s ranked No. 35 overall in the On3 Ratings. He’s the No. 5 point guard in 2025 and the No. 2 player in the state of Virginia.

“I like Tennessee because not only have they consistently been one of the top teams in the country,” Mallory told Tipton, “but they also have the formula for small guards just like me. I can see myself fit their play style and thrive in their offense.”
Four-Star Shooting Guard Braylon Mullins
Four-star shooting guard Braylon Mullins will take an official visit to Tennessee on October 19, the weekend Tennessee Football hosts Alabama at Neyland Stadium.
The 6-foot-4, 180-pound prospect out of Greenfield, Ind., is the No. 26 overall recruit in the On3 Industry Ranking for 2025. He’s the No. 8 shooting guard in the class and the No. 3 overall player in the state of Indiana.
Mullins took unofficial visits to Kentucky, Purdue and Ohio State in June. He also has official visits scheduled to Michigan (Sept. 7) and Indiana (Sept. 21).
