Early life and high school
Phillips was born in Killeen, Texas and moved to Columbia, South Carolina in the third grade after his parents, who were serving in the U.S. Army, were stationed at Fort Jackson.

He originally committed to play college basketball at LSU over offers from Florida State, Tennessee and USC at the beginning of his senior season and signed a National Letter of Intent (NLI) during the early signing period. After LSU head coach Will Wade was fired, Phillips requested and was granted a release from his NLI and reopened his recruitment. He ultimately committed to play at Tennessee after considering offers from South Carolina and Auburn. Phillips also considered playing professionally in the NBA G League.
