Alabama Crimson Tide

October Commits:

  • 4-star PF Mouhamed Dioubate

Also holding one of SEC Basketball’s top 2023 classes, Alabama was also a notable recruiting winner during October in addition to the Wildcats. As to why, that is because the Crimson Tide landed a commitment from Mouhamed Dioubate, who is currently the highest-rated recruit in their 2023 class.

Dioubate is rated as a four-star prospect out of Putnam Science Academy, as well as being considered as a Top 100 player nationally. A 6-foot-7 forward, Dioubate is also the fourth addition to the Crimson Tide’s 2023 class, with all four having officially signed their letters of intent with Alabama just a few days ago.

As for those other three names, Dioubate joins fellow four-stars Sam Walters and Davin Cosby, as well as three-star RJ Johnson. A class that is potentially not yet done adding either, it appears that the Crimson Tide will finish with one of the SEC’s top recruiting classes once again.
