Alabama's Ronald Steele Withdraws From NBA Draft
Alabama redshirt point guard Ronald Steele will withdraw from the draft and return for his senior season. A medical redshirt for the 2007-08 season due to a knee injury, attended the NBA Draft camp in Florida this last week and decided it was better to finish out his college career. Steele should improve an Alabama team that went 17-16 overall and 5-11 in the SEC last season. As a sophomore, Steele was an SEC first-team guard while averaging 15.9 PPG in SEC games. As a junior, Steele averaged 8.6 PPG, 4.0 APG and 1.7 RPG. His knee injuries in 2006-07 hurt his production that season. With Alabama's strong recruiting class (a five star and two four star recruits) and Steele's return, the Crimison Tide should make it back to the NCAA tournament.
