Former Alabama basketball starter to reportedly reenter NCAA transfer portal

[ASFN Admin]

According to a report Monday afternoon from On3's Joe Tipton, former Alabama Crimson Tide forward Nick Pringle is re-entering the NCAA transfer portal after only one season at South Carolina.

Pringle will also be testing the NBA draft waters according to Tipton, entering his name into the transfer portal at the same time.

Transferring to South Carolina last offseason from Alabama, Pringle is coming off likely his best collegiate season in which he averaged a career-high 9.5 points and 6.3 rebounds per game on 57.2% shooting from the field. Pringle also shot a combined 65.5% at the free throw line, a career-high.

At Alabama, Pringle appeared in 70 games for the Crimson Tide across two seasons in 2022-23 and 2023-24, 16 of which he started. Pringle was also a key player in the Crimson Tide's run to the Final Four a year ago, and averaged a combined 5.1 points and 4.1 rebounds per game on 69% shooting from the field while in Tuscaloosa.

The South Carolina forward is the second former Alabama transfer to enter the transfer portal so far, joining guard Davin Cosby.
