Tennessee Basketball Secures Israeli Guard Ethan Burg With Three-Year Eligibility
Tennessee basketball has secured Israeli combo guard Ethan Burg for the 2025–26 season, with Burg receiving three years of NCAA eligibility despite his two seasons of professional play in Israel. Burg, a 6-foot-3, 22-year-old guard, averaged around 11 points per game with solid shooting percentages and demonstrated versatility, transition skill, and an ability to score both off the bounce and from beyond the arc. Head coach Rick Barnes praised Burg's confidence, edge, and international experience, highlighting his potential to smoothly transition into the SEC and contribute as a perimeter shooter and playmaker. Burg becomes the 15th scholarship player on Tennessee’s roster and joins a talented 2025 recruiting class that includes five-star prospect Nate Ament and other transfers and signees. His addition brings maturity and depth to a team aiming for a deep NCAA tournament run, following back-to-back Elite Eight appearances. The NCAA's ruling on Burg's eligibility was a significant boost for Tennessee, confirming that he will begin his college career as a sophomore.
