Mason Miller's teammate from Houston High. I'm assuming he's a walk on?

Yes. Looks like a Nic Zeil replacement.

Best walk-ons in college basketball history. Book it! Welcome to Omaha, Zander. That shooting stroke in the highlight video is smooth.

In the final three games of the TN high school B-ball tournament they won, Zander scored almost as many points as teammate Mason Miller, so maybe he will be a walk on to remember.

A nice pickup as a 6'-8" PF walkon who had 3 D1 offers. Zander will add depth to the front line and possibly make the rotation down the road.

Nice to get high quality walk-ons. They make the scout team tougher to defend and closer to what we'll see in games, and they can develop and sometimes get court time in games as well!

Zander may be red shirting with Mason. Both are dressed the same before tonight’s game.
