The Tennessee Vols are reportedly the favorites to land a coveted transfer player. 

According to CBS Sports college basketball insider Jon Rothstein, Tennessee is the favorite to land Charlotte transfer forward Igor Milicic. 

Milicic revealed a top three recently of Tennessee, Nebraska, and Baylor. 

Last season, Milicic, who is 6-foot-10, averaged 12.8 points per game and 8.5 rebounds per game. He also averaged 1.1 blocks per game and made 56 three-pointers (37.6 percent) this past season. 

Milicic would give the Vols another scoring threat while also providing plenty of value on the defensive end of the court, which will be important with Tobe Awaka and Jonas Aidoo moving from Tennessee via the transfer portal.
