Projecting Alabama's depth chart following Amari Allen draft decision

[ASFN Admin]

The highly anticipated NBA draft decision from Alabama basketball forward Amari Allen has officially been revealed.

On Wednesday, Allen has announced that he was withdrawing from the 2026 NBA draft, and will return to Alabama for the 2026-27 season. The forward started 24-of-32 games for Alabama a year ago as a freshman, averaging 11.4 points, 6.9 rebounds, and 3.1 assists per game on 34.1% from three.

As a result, Allen is now cemented in Alabama's starting lineup once again entering next season, giving the Crimson Tide a huge win at the NBA draft withdrawal deadline for the second season in a row after Labaron Philon did the same a year ago.

Here is an updated look at Alabama basketball's projected 2026-27 depth chart following Allen's draft decision, as of Wednesday, May 27.
