This is copied text from an online report: This is one of 3 of Pepperdine's portal transfers.
As Alabama prepares to travel west for the NCAA Tournament this week, the Tide has gone to the West Coast to land one of the nation's top available players in the transfer portal as it begins to construct its roster for next season. Pepperdine guard Houston Mallette has committed to play for Alabama, sources told Bama247 on Tuesday. He is 247Sports' No. 6 overall player in the transfer portal.
Hopefully Cronin can get a good commit or two or three before the really good ones are gone.
