Aden Holloway, a guard for the University of Alabama basketball team, is currently suspended due to felony drug charges stemming from an arrest on March 16, where authorities discovered 2.1 pounds of marijuana in his apartment. Coach Nate Oats stated that a scholarship will remain available for Holloway, depending on the outcome of his legal proceedings. Holloway has waived his arraignment date set for June 16, with his attorney planning to file a not guilty plea. Last season, he was a key player, averaging 16.8 points per game and leading the team in 3-point shooting at 43.8%. Oats emphasized that the program has contingency plans for various scenarios regarding the status of Holloway and other players, including rising sophomore Amari Allen, who has declared for the 2026 NBA draft, and redshirt freshman Collins Onyejiaka, who is still awaiting medical clearance. The coach remains optimistic about Holloway's potential return if the legal issues are resolved favorably.
