Alabama basketball's superior depth will be key against Arkansas

Alabama basketball has enjoyed a much-needed week off but is now in Fayetteville to begin a two-game road trip at Arkansas and Texas back-to-back. The Crimson

As I mentioned a couple months ago, I think our depth will be the biggest factor in our conference run. Might be even more critical during tournament schedules.

I don't believe any other team has a bench like we have.

It's the very thing that allows us to sustain injuries and still maintain our momentum.

I hope the Hogs revert to their pre-KY shooting.

Nate Oats gives concerning update on Derrion Reid ahead of Arkansas game

True freshman Derrion Reid missed four consecutive games in January for Alabama basketball before returning for the Crimson Tide's last two wins over Mississipp

bamahammer.com

We have sure missed him, and I'm sorry he's out today, but I support Coach's mindset:

Oats went on to say that Alabama is prioritizing Reid's long-term health instead of risking further injury. ... He has a future playing basketball and Oats and company are being careful so as to not cause him an issue that will linger long-term for him.

Hopefully I will stay awake long enough to watch. I have been sleeping on and off for 2 days. The flu sucks

 

[BhamToTexas]

I don’t have a great feeling about this one. It is going to be tough.

 

[TiderJack]

RTR!!!!!

Same here… I had total knee replacement on Wednesday. The pain meds keep me in a funk/fog. I’ll try to play through the pain lol 🥴

I’ve dialed up a win for your health. You get some rest!

Clemson is beating Duke at the moment.

Auburn @ Bama could still realistically be 1v2.

I had left hip replacement last year on March 27 and right knee replacement on Aug. 5.

If you can tolerate it, keep the meds up. Stay faithful to rehab.

Finally getting to watch a game with no interruptions, other than a frosty Fairhope brew. RTR!

Yeah, I'm facing the second one (left) on 4/2. Not only is all my cartilage gone, the trochanter ball is flat on one side, from grinding against my pelvis where the cup used to be. They don't see how I'm walking. For once, I'm actually looking forward to a major surgery...

8:00 minutes left in Clemson/Duke. Time for our game. Sigh!

My hip hurt for 20 years. Glad I did it. My knee is still healing at 6 months. Hope yours goes well!

 

[TIDE-HSV]

It would seem like they could do at least a little better job of scheduling...

 

[BamaNation]

Bama arky to start on ESPNNews @ 740 CT … where the pillow fighting championship is currently on. Not kidding.

Yeah. On the left, the surgeon told me 8 years ago it needed doing immediately. At least, he's had 8 more years of practice. The right one was done nine years ago by an Andrews surgeon. Personally, the whole experience was overrated...
