It did not take long for the Alabama men’s basketball coaching staff to reach out to one of the top guards in the transfer portal. Recently, the Crimson Tide reached out to UT-Martin transfer guard Jordan Sears.
Sears began his college career at Gardner-Webb. The Florida native spent two seasons with the Runnin’ Bulldogs. He averaged 8.7 points per game while making 24 starts.
Upon transferring to UT-Martin, Sears saw an increase in minutes and overall production. In the 44 games that he played as a Warhawk, he made 42 starts. In two seasons at UT-Martin, Sears averaged 18.5 points per game, 4.0 rebounds per game, and 3.7 assists per game. In addition, he shot 46% from the field and 37.4% from beyond the arc.
If Alabama were to land Sears via the transfer portal, it would not be their first time landing a player with the last name Sears. Two years ago, Alabama landed Ohio transfer Mark Sears. He has panned out nicely for the Crimson Tide. Could another Sears be en route to Tuscaloosa soon?
