After missing four straight games, Latrell Wrightsell returned on Sunday for Alabama's home matchup against UTSA. The senior guard couldn't find the range from three, connecting on just 2-of-14 attempts.

That continued what has been an early-season shooting slump for Wrightsell, who shot 42% or higher from three in both of his previous seasons in Tuscaloosa. In four games this year, Wrightsell is only at 25% from three.
