Alabama Crimson Tide News

Amari Allen - Gets first triple-double Allen contributed 16 points (3-8 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 7-8 FT), 13 rebounds and 11 assists over 31 minutes during Friday's 101-86 win over Arkansas State.

Impact Allen had five double-doubles as a freshman, but never controlled the ball enough to tally 10 assists. He facilitated the offense and should continue to do so even when Aden Holloway comes back. The native of Green Bay has tallied 14.0 points, 8.5 rebounds and 7.5 assists in his first two games of his sophomore season. The Tide take on Oakland on Monday.

Brandon Garrison - Collects double-double Garrison notched 14 points (5-7 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 3-6 FT), 10 rebounds, one assist and one steal over 19 minutes during Friday's 101-86 win over Arkansas State.

Impact After two years of coming off the bench at Kentucky, Garrison made his way across the SEC to Alabama where he has started the last two games as the Crimson Tide have gone with a giant lineup. The 6-10 senior was held to nine points and four rebounds in the opener against Sam Houston, but took better advantage of opportunities against the Bearkats. As long as he continues to start, Garrison should be a steady source of points and rebounds.

Aden Holloway - Suspension finished Holloway (suspension) is available for Alabama's next game Monday against Oakland, according to Katie Windham of SI.com.

Impact Alabama's regular season began Monday, and the team has already played two regular-season games, meaning Holloway has served his suspension. The Tide get a top scorer and distributor back, considering he averaged 16.8 points, 3.8 assists and 2.6 three-pointers made across his 28 games (all but one of them starts) last season.

Preston Murphy Jr. - Plays one minute Friday night Murphy (upper body) played one minute in Alabama's 101-86 win over Arkansas State.

Impact Murphy returned to action ever so briefly Friday night. He'll look to get more involved on Monday against Oakland.

Collins Onyejiaka - Makes late game appearance Onyejiaka (undisclosed) provided zero points (0-1 FG) in one minute during Tuesday's 96-74 win over Sam Houston.

Impact Onyejiaka did not play last season because the medical team detected an irregular heartbeat. The 6-11, 270 lb redshirt freshman could provide a physical presence that Alabama would not otherwise have on its roster. He is still a project, but one who could grow into a paint dominator in time.

Collins Onyejiaka - Not in uniform Thursday Onyejiaka (undisclosed) is out for Thursday's exhibition game versus Auburn, Blake Byler of On3.com reports.

Impact Onyejiaka was medically cleared to play following after missing nearly the entire season last year with an undisclosed injury, but he's apparently still not quite ready to get back on the court. The team's season opener versus Sam Houston is less than two weeks away.

Amari Allen - Scores 19 in exhibition Allen led the Crimson Tide with 19 points (5-10 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 7-8 FT) to go with six rebounds and five assists in the exhibition win over Ole Miss on Thursday.

Impact Allen looks primed for an excellent sophomore season after flirting with the NBA. He will command more of the offense while Aden Holloway (suspension) is out and should kick the 2026-27 season off in high style. The 6-6 sophomore from Green Bay is a triple-double threat.

OCTOBER 16 • ROTOWIRE

Collins Onyejiaka - Medically cleared to play Onyejiaka is medically cleared to play for Alabama, Emilee Smarr of The Tuscaloosa News reports.

Impact Onyejiaka was sidelined for the entire 2025-26 season due to a heart issue, but has now been cleared to return to action. He did not play in the team's most recent exhibition game, but that's because head coach Nate Oats sees more suitable matchups for him in the near future.

Keitenn Bristow - Finally healthy Bristow (ankle) logged eight points (3-5 FG, 2-4 3Pt), three rebounds, two assists and one block in Thursday's exhibition game against Furman.

Impact After a near-nine-month absence, Bristow is healthy going into Alabama's 2026-27 season. For last year's Crimson Tide, he averaged 3.6 points and 4.0 rebounds across 10 games. At minimum, Bristow will look to maintain a regular position in Alabama's rotation.

Aden Holloway - Suspended for two regular season games Holloway has been suspended by Alabama for the team's three exhibition games and two regular season games, per Nick Kelly of AL.com.

Impact Holloway won't be available for the Crimson Tide's three exhibition games against Furman, Ole Miss and Auburn, and he'll miss the first two games that actually count with the regular-season opener against Sam Houston followed by game two against Arkansas State. The star point guard, who had his Marijuana charges dropped after his arrest in March, will return to action on Nov. 9 against Oakland.

Aden Holloway - Previous charges dismissed Holloway (suspension) had his possession of marijuana charges dismissed earlier in September, Nick Kelly of AL.com reports.

Impact By getting his marijuana charges dismissed, as confirmed by Alabama's court system, he has completed a second-chance program that was mandated for his clearance. Now, he has to receive it from Alabama, and perhaps there will be an indication of what the Crimson Tide have decided to do going into their preseason schedule. Assuming that Holloway is healthy, he has sufficient time to get game-ready before Alabama's regular season begins in November.
