For a couple of years, we’ve heard all about Jordan Bone’s potential. We’ve seen it in spurts, but the junior point guard has taken a backseat to Tennessee stars Admiral Schofield and Grant Williams, for the most part. On a rare night where neither Williams or Schofield were spectacular, Bone was against Samford.
“Obviously we were trying to go inside early,” Barnes said after the game. “(Bone) attacked the elbows and got to the rim. He really played well tonight.”
Bone logged 37 minutes with Lamonte Turner once again on the sidelines.
