KNOXVILLE – After months of preparing without a cause, there’s finally a purpose to all of Lamonte Turner’s extra work.
Soon he could be Tennessee’s starting point guard.
The Volunteers have been searching for a natural at the position seemingly for the past decade.
“People come up to me and say we finally found our natural point guard,” Turner said last week. “That’s exciting. I’ve played it all my life, so it just comes natural to me, I guess. There’s not really much pressure behind that.”
Turner is working this offseason like there’s all the pressure in the world on him, though.
