This...if they get him ball at the elbow or in the post, and he tries that back down dribble stuff, the Vols will double him immediately and forcefully, and that won't end well. CMM is going to play him, so IMHO it would be best to feature him only in the pick and pop scenarios and avoid the former and hopefully he stays hot from outside.
Definitely important that he is strong with the basketball against Tenner. Tenner is a great defense who is good at pretty much everything except avoiding fouls due to their aggression. If Baker is strong with the basketball he should earn some trips to the line where he can help us score some cheap points.

I don't think putting Baker in situations where he has to be strong with the basketball and hopes he gets a foul is the strategy I would chose against Tennesse.
We have almost zero chance to win there, but doing this would IMHO put our chances at a flat zero.
Feature him in pick and pops and hope Wright and Cook have efficient offensive nights I think is our only shot of being competitive.
