Amari Allen's feel, grit, and versatility popped in the opening round of the NCAA Tournament vs Hofstra. Physical offensive rebounds, full-speed off-hand finishes, manipulative reads, etc. Finished with 11 points, 6 rebounds, and 5 assists. pic.twitter.com/xPy5ovCK6e

Philon knew it was going pro, set as a projected lottery pick in the NBA Draft. The other key decision is Allen, a versatile forward who elected to return, a major boost to the frontcourt. He joins Holloway as the focal points of the roster.
Alabama’s hope is that the frontcourt takes a major leap. Fielder is one of the best spacing forwards in the country, while Garrison is a capable center. If Cloer and Samuels give them anything on the wings, the Tide’s offense will remain as one of the best in the country again.
