Collin Sexton to Alabama: Crimson Tide Land 5-Star PG Prospect

Prized point guard Collin Sexton has committed to play college basketball for the Alabama Crimson Tide after attracting interest from several high-profile programs.

ESPN.com's Jeff Borzello reported the news Thursday.

According to Borzello, Sexton will be the first 5-star recruit to sign with Alabama since JaMychal Green did so eight years ago.

Sexton is the ninth-ranked recruit in the 2017 class, according to Scout.com. He also checks in as the second-ranked point guard in the nation and the top point guard from Georgia in the class.

The Pebblebrook High School standout enjoyed a meteoric rise up the rankings over the summer.
