Career Points: 1,933

2016-17 Points: 34 (17.0 PPG)

Each and every one of these players has an implied "if he can stay healthy" attached to his chances of scoring 2,000 career points, but it's worth explicitly stating for James Daniel.

The graduate transfer will be suiting up for Tennessee this year, but he missed at least two games in each of his last four seasons with Howard. Most notably, he missed all but two games this past year due to an ankle injury.

When good to go, though, Daniel has been a scoring machine.

Daniel put up 28 points in his first career game, averaged 21.6 per game that November and never looked back. As a junior, he led the nation in scoring with 27.1 points per game. That year, he scored at least 35 points twice as many times (six) as he was held under 20 points (three).

Throughout his career, the free-throw line has been Daniel's best friend.

He shot just 30.8 percent from three-point range over the last three seasons and is a 39.8-percent two-point shooter in his career. But this guy is the king of getting to and converting from the charity stripe. If you can believe this, Daniel averaged 11.0 free-throw attempts per game as a junior—1.3 more than the highest mark of Tyler Hansbrough's career at North Carolina. And because Daniel shoots 82.2 percent from the line, nearly 33 percent of his points (624) have come one at a time.

As far as his fit with the Volunteers is concerned, there should be enough room for Daniel to carve out at least 67 points. Leading scorer Robert Hubbs III graduated, and guards Shembari Phillips and Detrick Mostella both transferred. There are still five returning players 6'5" or shorter who averaged at least 7.2 points per game last season, but there are plenty of minutes up for grabs.
