Zakai Zeigler turns 24 on Aug. 2. He'll spend the day flying to Germany. On his last day in Knoxville, he spent it giving back to a place he calls home.
Zeigler was back in town to host his second annual I AM G.I.A.N.T. Basketball Camp on Aug. 1 at Webb School of Knoxville.
"It makes me feel really good, seeing all the campers, everybody here," he said of the E3 Camps event. "It's my last day before I go back overseas, so it's a great way to spend it."
He played four seasons for Tennessee basketball, and left as the program's all-time leader in **** ists (747) and steals (251), averaging 11.3 points, 5.4 **** ists, 2.6 rebounds and 1.8 steals across 138 games from 2021 to 2025. He earned two SEC Defensive Player of the Year awards and three All-SEC selections, and became the first player in conference history with four SEC All-Defensive Team honors.
G.I.A.N.T. stands for "Gettin' To It And Not Talking," a fitting motto for a player with a résumé like his, despite being listed at 5-foot-9.
