Senior guard Latrell Wrightsell Jr. suffered a ruptured Achilles tendon during the team’s recent game against Oregon, head coach Nate Oats confirmed on Tuesday.

Coach Nate Oats announced Alabama basketball guard Latrell Wrightsell, Jr. is out for the year with a ruptured Achilles. Who will step up for Tide?

He's going to have surgery on Wednesday and we expect him to make a full recovery. It's obviously not a quick recovery, but Dr. Waldrop will do the surgery and he'll be able to get back to a high level of basketball after his recovery.
