Out for the season Wrightsell ruptured his Achillies tendon during Saturday's game against Oregon and he will miss the remainder of the 2024-25 season, Charlie Potter of 247Sports.com reports.
Impact Wrightsell will miss the remainder of his senior season as he's set to undergo season-ending surgery on an Achillies injury suffered against the Ducks. The 6-foot-3 senior was off to a fast start in his second season with the Crimson Tide, averaging 11.5 points, 1.8 rebounds, two assists and 0.5 steals on 25.8 minutes per game (eight games, five starts). Wrightsell will likely seek out a medical redshirt, if possible, to extend his collegiate eligibility, with a long recovery road ahead of him. In his absence, Derrion Reid, who has started in two games thus far, is likely to see an expanded role for Alabama moving forward.

Will play with minutes restriction Wrightsell (undisclosed) will be available for Alabama, albeit with a minutes restriction, Jack Knowlton of Rivals.com reports.
Impact Wrightsell was spotted warming up, so it's little surprise that he'll play. He may be limited with his minutes, but against UNC-Asheville, the Crimson Tide shouldn't need to rely too heavily on any one player.

Warming up Monday Wrightsell (undisclosed) is warming up ahead of Monday's opener against UNC-Asheville, Charlie Potter of 247Sports.com reports.
Impact Wrightsell looks on track to play in Alabama's opener against UNC-Asheville after sitting out during the Crimson Tide's exhibition game against Memphis. The 6-foot-3 senior played a significant role in Alabama's rotation last season, averaging 8.9 points, three rebounds, 1.4 assists and 1.1 steals on 23.7 minutes per game (31 games). If Wrightsell is ultimately unable to go, his next opportunity to return will come against Arkansas State on Friday.

Expected to play, coming off bench Wright (undisclosed) is expected to play but would come off the bench on a minutes restriction for Alabama's game Monday against UNC-Asheville, per Jeff Goodman of TheFieldof68.com...
Impact At the very least, Wrightsell is not expected to miss extended time. However, he is unlikely to have an immediate chance of maximizing his impact due to a minutes restriction and Alabama not starting him Monday. If exhibition games are a legitimate source of how the Crimson Tide's starting lineup will be constructed without Wrightsell, Labaron Philon is a lock to start, with Aden Holloway or Houston Mallette rounding out the perimeter to work with Mark Sears.
