Tennessee has added another piece to its growing 2025 recruiting class.

The Vols picked up the commitment of French guard Clarence Massamba, Joe Tipton reports.

He played for The Rock School in Gainesville, Florida before playing professional ball with AS Monaco in France.

With AS Monaco, he averaged 9.8 points per game on 45% shooting from the field and 34% on 3-pointers.

Massamba, as a junior, helped lead the Rock School to a Florida state title in just his second season in America. That year, he averaged about 13 points and five rebounds per game.

He is also known for stout perimeter defense, making him a natural fit in Rick Barnes' system.

Along with the Vols, that season resulted in him reportedly hearing from schools such as Vanderbilt, Mississippi State and Xavier.

Massamba is now the fifth member of Tennessee's recruiting class for the 2025 cycle.

The group is headlined by Nate Ament, a five-star who ranks fourth nationally. He is projected to be an immediate starter for the Vols.

Four-star Amari Evans also joins the group as one of the best wing defenders in the class. A presence in the paint, DeWayne Brown II has been the longest tenured commit dating back to April of 2024.

Troy Henderson is also an unranked guard who joined the group in March during the NCAA Tournament run.
