veteran frontcourt glue guy who did the dirty work for Tennessee
Evans was a valuable 2016-17 Tennessee forward because he brought toughness, positional size, and winning-impact details that don’t always jump off the box score: he appeared in all 32 games, drew a team-high eight charges, and posted the Vols’ best plus-minus per 40 minutes at +7.95. [2] He was not a high-volume scorer, but his college track record shows a steady rebounder and efficient complementary piece who can stretch the floor enough to matter, making him a fit for teams that want experience, physicality, and selfless defense-first frontcourt minutes.
