Jaylen Forbes

The Alabama men's basketball team saw two players enter the transfer portal at the conclusion of the 2019-20 season. Freshman Raymond Hawkins was the first, followed by fellow freshman Jaylen Forbes. Both players announced their new destinations on Twitter today. Hawkins will transfer to Long Beach State, while Forbes will join Tulane.

Alabama freshman guard Jaylen Forbes has entered the transfer portal according to Jeff Goodman. Forbes is the second Alabama freshman to decide to leave the program after the 2019-20 season, following Raymond Hawkins into the portal. Forbes was a four-star shooting guard out of high school according to 247Sports.

Alabama basketball returns to Coleman Coliseum tomorrow after losing on the road to LSU on Wednesday night. Head Coach Nate Oats, freshman Jaylen Forbes and sophomore Kira Lewis Jr. spoke to the media after Friday’s practice ahead of the next game against Arkansas. The trio spoke plainly about the need to play a tough brand of basketball to return to its winning ways.
