Alabama Basketball Recruiting: Nate Oats Lands Elite Shooting Guard

Alabama basketball may play its season opener later tonight against Louisiana Tech, but Nate Oats has already scored another win with the commitment of 4-star shooting guard Rylan Griffen.

The scouting report, per CBS Sports:

A scoring guard whose game is predicated upon upside, Griffen will be as good as he wants to be in the game of basketball. He has the tools to evolve into a high-level defender and the upside to be a tough shot maker who can put the ball in the basket in a variety of ways. Griffin can score from all three-levels on the floor and is a solid shooter but he could still use some improvement in that area of the game.
