Alabama basketball guard Davin Cosby has entered the NCAA transfer portal after playing one season for the Crimson Tide, he posted on Instagram with On3.
Cosby becomes the latest Alabama player to enter the transfer portal. Accompanist Max Scharnowski and fellows Kris Parker and Rylan Griffen also put their names on the portal.
Dealing with roster turnover due to transfers is nothing new for UA coach Nate Oats, who has more than once successfully rebuilt Alabama’s roster despite significant departures from the portal. Last season, with just three regulars returning, he led the Crimson Tide to their first Final Four appearance.
Cosby (6-foot-2, 200 pounds) saw action in just 22 of 37 games, averaging 7.8 minutes, 3.6 points and 0.9 rebounds per game. Cosby scored a season-high 15 points at Ole Miss, including five 3-pointers, in February. He was unavailable to play in the NCAA tournament due to a broken foot, but traveled with the team. The freshman from Richmond, Virginia, chose Alabama over LSU and NC State. Cosby spent the second half of the 2022-23 season with the Crimson Tide as part of a redshirt season.
