TUSCALOOSA, Alabama -- Alabama point guard Trevor Releford injured his ankle in practice Monday and is considered "doubtful" for Wednesday's game at Mississippi State, coach Anthony Grant said.

Grant said Releford's status would be re-evaluated after today's practice.

"From my standpoint, I think that gives our younger guys an opportunity to step up and assume different roles and give more guys opportunities to get on the floor and do the things they obviously came here to do," Grant said. "Whether or not he's available, our full expectation is to go in there and play well."
