Tennessee basketball injury update, includes Nate Ament vs Vanderbilt

by

Several players appeared on the availability report for Tennessee basketball on March 6.

Nate Ament, Bishop Boswell and Troy Henderson all showed up on the report ahead of the No. 25 Vols (21-9, 11-6) regular season finale against No. 22 Vanderbilt (23-7, 10-7) at Food City Center on March 7 (2 p.m. ET, ESPN).

Ament, the 6-foot-10 freshman forward, is doubtful with a right leg injury, which Tennessee basketball coach Rick Barnes has described as a high ankle sprain. He missed his first game of the season when the Vols defeated South Carolina, 78-59, on March 3.

Starting guard Bishop Boswell and reserve guard Troy Henderson are both probable. Henderson has been dealing with a shoulder injury that initially kept him out of Tennessee’s win at Alabama on Jan. 24.

Boswell has an illness that prevented from being at practice on March 6.

Reserve freshman guard Clarence Massamba is questionable to play with a right hip injury that has sidelined him unavailable for several games.
