Rising Crimson Tide freshman showing out in open scrimmage

It seems rising Alabama freshman Brandon Miller is a 5-star prospect for a reason.

Miller, who chose the Tide over Tennessee, Kentucky and Auburn in November of 2021, showed out in Saturday’s open scrimmage for the Crimson Tide.

Miller was rated as the No. 15 player in the Class of 2023, the No. 6 small forward in the nation and the No. 1 prospect out of the state of Tennessee. He stands at 6-foot-8, 200 pounds.

And as shown by the above clip, he seems to be fitting in just fine for head coach Nate Oats and company. He showed his defensive skills by rising up for a commanding block on one end and nailed a one-foot mid-range jumper on the other.

The Crimson Tide are looking to seriously contend for the SEC once again after a down year in 2021. Alabama finished 19-14 and lost in the first round of the SEC Tournament to Vanderbilt before falling in the first round of the NCAA Tournament to Notre Dame.
