With four players out, Nate Oats and Alabama basketball still had little trouble running away from North Dakota in the season opener.
A banged-up Alabama basketball team had little trouble dispatching North Dakota in the season opener on Monday night, running away with a 91-62 victory.
Alabama's depth was immediately tested in the opener. Along with the preseason toe injury for Miami (FL) transfer Jalil Bethea, Nate Oats held out Aden Holloway (wrist), Latrell Wrightsell (finger), and Keitenn Bristow (ankle) with minor injuries.
