Basketball fans got their first glimpse of the 2024-25 Alabama Crimson Tide on Friday night inside Coleman Coliseum, as the program took to the court for the first time this season.
While not in action against another team, the Crimson Tide did do a few things that included a three-point contest and dunk contest. Mark Sears won the three-point contest, while five-star freshman Derrion Reid was victorious in the dunk contest.
In addition to that, the Crimson Tide also celebrated the program’s first-ever Final Four appearance from last season. As a part of this, Alabama unveiled the newest addition to the rafters in Coleman Coliseum, as the program’s first Final Four banner was revealed.
