\u201cAlabama\u2019s 19 3-pointers tonight are 3rd-most in a game in NCAA Tournament history. The Crimson Tide made 15 more 3s than Texas Tech, the 3rd-largest differential in Tournament history. Alabama set both of those records in its Sweet 16 win over BYU last year,\u201d Berson posted on X, formerly Twitter.<\/p>\n

Alabama was great from three, hitting 19 of 42 attempts from behind the arc. This was led by Latrell Wrightsell, who went six of nine from deep. Meanwhile, Labaron Philon and London Jemison both hit two three-pointers, while Aiden Sherrell also hit his lone three-point attempt, giving the starting line-up 11 threes. The bench also stepped up from deep. Houston Mallette led the way, hitting five of seven three-point attempts. Meanwhile, Noah Williamon added two threes, while Taylor Bol Bowen hit one.<\/p>\n

Only four members of the Tide did not hit a three-point attempt, while just one player did not even make a three-point attempt. Jacob Martin played just two minutes in the game and did not attempt a shot.<\/p>\n
