Tennessee’s Jeronne Maymon (34) puts up a shot.KNOXVILLE — Jeronne Maymon admits his style is unconventional.
Neither the tallest player nor the highest jumper, the University of Tennessee junior forward must be creative in the post.
“It’s all about quickness and smarts,” he said Tuesday.
It works, however one prefers to describe it.
Scoop shots, up-and-under moves, pump fakes and considerable contact — Maymon used them all to develop into the Volunteers’ most consistent overall weapon. He is their second-leading scorer and top rebounder, which earned him a selection to the All-SEC second team Tuesday.
