Nashville, Tennessee-Alabama basketball has lost a large piece of the puzzle while trying to set up an advance against Florida in the semi-finals on Saturday in the dry tournament in Bridgestone Arena.
The third seeded Crimson Tide could not find the flow it had without granting Nelson on the ground after half-time, and what was a game to a possession quickly became a deficit of more than 10 points which has become bigger. Nelson left with an injury and did not return.
Alabama Coach Nate OATs told journalists to expect in March Madness’s section with a left leg injury having an impact on the Senior of Devils Lake, North Dakota.
How long will Grant Nelson have been released for Alabama basketball?
“He suffered this knee injury and I don’t know exactly what it is,” said oats after the match. “They don’t think it’s something with an LCA or something like that.”
The 6-foot-11-inch striker seemed embarrassed after a game towards the end of the first half and tried to cross it, but grimacted when he tried to put weight on his leg.
When a dead time was called with 3:40 to play before half-time, Nelson left the game in visible pain, tapping oats in the back when he exceeded the bench to apparently indicate that he had to be removed from the range. A few moments later, Nelson was escorted in the locker room.
Nelson was evaluated by a team doctor and it was decided that he should not return to the action. He was on the bench after going back to the ground.
Before leaving the match, Nelson was 4-in-7 with nine points, three rebounds, a assist, a block and a flight.
Oats do not direct Nelson for the NCAA tournament.
“I hope that we will recover it for the first round,” said oats.
