To provide depth, the Vols have been searching for another big man to join the team.
In the previous season, Fermin only participated in four games and scored an average of 0. 8 points each game while also coping with personal matters outside the court.
But over the course of his career, Fermin has averaged 4. 0 points, 3. 1 rebounds, and 1. 2 blocks per game.
