Alabama starting guard Aden Holloway was arrested on drug possession charges on Monday, four days before the fourth-seeded Crimson Tide play their NCAA Tournament opener.
A spokesperson for the Tuscaloosa (Ala.) police department told 247Sports that the 21-year-old junior was charged with first-degree possession of marijuana after the West Alabama Narcotics Task Force seized more than a pound of weed, paraphernalia and cash from his residence.
Holloway was taken to the Tuscaloosa County jail with a bond set at $5,000.
Alabama has not yet commented on Holloway's arrest or his status with the team.
Holloway is the No. 2 scorer for the Crimson Tide (23-9), averaging 16.8 points, 3.8 assists and 2.8 rebounds while shooting 43.8% from 3-point range in 28 games (27 starts) this season. He played his first season at Auburn in 2023-24 before transferring to Alabama.
Alabama, a 4 seed, will face 13th-seeded Hofstra (24-10) on Friday at 3:15 p.m. ET in Tampa, Fla., in the opening round of the NCAA Tournament's Midwest Region.
