Alabama Forward Michael Kessens to Transfer
The Alabama men's basketball program lost its second player to transfer on Wednesday when Michael Kessens announced he would pursue his graduate education at another school.
The forward from Switzerland shared the news on Twitter.
The announcement came less than an hour after point guard Justin Coleman tweeted his intention to leave the program.
Kessens finished his third season with Alabama after transferring in from Longwood University in 2013. He started a career-high 21 games under Avery Johnson this season, averaging 3.7 points and 3.5 rebounds per game.
