Alabama basketball has been busy recruiting the class of 2027, and a review is in from the latest prospect to spend time in Tuscaloosa.
Four-star Chase Lumpkin is a rising senior at McEachern High in Powder Springs, Georgia. The top five shooting guard recruit had an unofficial visit with the Crimson Tide earlier in May, according to On3's Joe Tipton.
On the Nike EYBL Circuit this year, Lumpkin − billed at 6-foot-4, 170 pounds − has averaged 17.2 points, 6.3 rebounds, 6.1 assists and 1.9 steals per contest.

Lumpkin told Tipton his time in Alabama was "really good."
"I enjoyed the coaching staff a lot, the facilities. I love the play style," Lumpkin continued. "They play really free, fast, kind of like an NBA style game. I really enjoyed the school a lot."
Alabama secured the first member of its 2027 class on Thursday, May 21 when point guard Anderson Diaz announced his commitment.
Over 20 other programs, including Auburn, Ole Miss and Tennessee, have offered Lumpkin, who says he is scheduling visits to Kentucky, Georgia, Florida State, Louisville, Oregon and UCLA, to name a few.
