veteran walk-on guard bringing Tennessee glue-guy energy
In the 2024-25 season, Grant Hurst was a low-usage reserve guard for Tennessee, appearing in 9 games and averaging 0.9 points while shooting 44.4% from the field, with his value coming less from box-score fireworks and more from reliability, maturity, and team-first habits.[7][10] He’s the kind of player coaches trust because he knows the system, competes hard, and reportedly carries real leadership weight in the program, making him a useful fit for teams that want composure and culture more than flashy stats.[9][11]
