Alabama basketball forward Derrion Reid is out for Tuesday’s game against Ole Miss.
Monday, the five star freshman was listed as “questionable” with an undisclosed injury in the SEC’s availability report.
Reid was unavailable for the No. 5 Crimson Tide’s game against South Dakota State, seen with a boot on his right foot during warmups after what Nate Oats called a “flare up” following an injury suffered this summer.
