KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (AP) -- Tennessee guard Cameron Tatum has a sprained right ankle after rolling it when the Volunteers hosted South Carolina.

Tatum wasn't expected to travel with the 12th-ranked Vols to Nashville on Monday night but might still join them on Tuesday before they face 22nd-ranked Vanderbilt.

Coach Bruce Pearl says the redshirt sophomore had some additional swelling in his foot and planned to get an MRI and more treatment.

Tennessee (18-4, 6-2 Southeastern Conference) faces its toughest road stretch this week with a trip to third-ranked Kentucky on Saturday following the Nashville trip.

Pearl joked on Monday that one of his concerns was getting the orange blazer he wears when facing Vanderbilt and Kentucky dry cleaned while on the road.
