Alabama Basketball Newcomer Breakdown: Latrell Wrightsell Jr.


As a junior last year, Wrightsell saw a points per game jump from 6.7 to 16.3, aided by nearly seven more field goal attempts per game. Not only did he score more, but he was more efficient from the field as well, converting a career-high 42 percent from the floor.


In addition to leading the Titans in scoring, Wrightsell also averaged 4.5 rebounds and 2.4 assists en route to a First Team All-Big West selection.


One of Wrightsell's biggest strengths last season was his 3-point shooting, something that, of course, translates seamlessly into Alabama's high-volume shooting offense. Wrightsell attempted 6.3 threes per game last year, and converted on 38 percent of them. For his career, he is a 35 percent 3-point shooter.
