Tennessee forward J.P. Estrella (13) signals a close shot during the NCAA Tournament Elite 8 game against Michigan at the United Center in Chicago on March 29, 2026.

Tennessee transfer forward J.P. Estrella told multiple media outlets on Thursday that he has committed to national champion Michigan.

Listed at 6-foot-11 and 240 pounds, Estrella averaged 10.0 points and 5.4 rebounds in 33 games (13 starts) with the Volunteers this past season. Tennessee's season came to an end in the Elite Eight, courtesy of a 95-62 setback to the Wolverines on March 29.

Michigan went on to capture its second national championship and first since 1989 with a 69-63 victory over UConn on Monday.

Estrella missed all but three games in 2024-25 after having season-ending surgery on his left foot.

He was a four-star recruit in the Class of 2023 out of Brewster Academy in South Portland, Maine.
