So looks like Kira Lewis is going to get drafted 10-15 or so? That's awesome, thought early draft projections had him right outside the lottery.

"Nate Oats did his research. he'd seen film of me, saw my games. A lot of coaches that called me didn't have as good a feel for the things I could do and how I could fit in their system, was vague. His detail on what I could do was appealing to me."

@AlabamaMBB Jordan Bruner on newcomers:

"It's been great. You can't even really tell we have a bunch of new guys in my opinion. All the new guys are learning really quick. The guys that didn't play last year are getting healthy and showing us what they can do."

"I'm feeling good right now. I feel like I got a positive out of the injury. I got to sit for a year and learn the system and watch as they played. I could learn what my teammates do and the system Oats plays. It was good to sit for a year and watch."

"I've known him forever, he's from my hometown. Him reaching out to me to come to Alabama to me was a huge deal, he's already a family friend. I felt at home already with him here."

@AlabamaMBB James Rojas on Keon Ellis:

"He's a great shooter. he can shoot, drive, good defender, long wing. He can do everything out there and we love that. We need guards who can move and play offense and defense. He brings a lot to the table."

"My style of play, I'd say I fit more in a run and gun offense. Watching them play I felt like I could fit in, they do get up and down on offense. That's my best offense to play in. I can finish in transition, shoot the ball, be off the dribble."

"He's definitely a great guard. With him being so young, he definitely has a large upside. He was made for this level. He can dribble he can shoot he can play defense. He's still learning but he's a really great player. I expect big things
