He runs the floor well, is a very active defensive rebounder, outplays his size defending the rim, and doesn\u2019t have too bad of a stroke for a bigger player. What is striking about his game is how well he both moves without the ball, and his ability to put the ball on the floor and create his own shot. <\/p>\n<p id=\"exDnZy\">Last season we lamented that the Tide didn\u2019t have a Chaney Johnson-type player who could bridge the bigs and the shooters. Consider that position filled, and Bristow\u2019s commitment is quietly one of the best pickups of the portal season for a Tide team looking to score at all three levels. Just as importantly, it is an Alabama team that had to improve its defense from the outside-in, as far too many forwards had big nights last year driving into the lane.<\/p>\n<p id=\"yfEWD7\">Just as Houston Mallette is the tweener type who spans the divide between wings and guards, Bristow bridges the gap beween wings and bigs, and he has the potential to be a hella\u2019 important player opening up the court in all sorts of ways, while also providing backside help and mid-court shot defense.<\/p>\n<div id=\"3unLEb\">\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Keitenn Bristow - Tarleton State - 2024-25 Transfer Portal Highlights\" width=\"840\" height=\"473\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/m_CDqD-K1rI?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p id=\"0Hpski\">Welcome to the Capstone, Keitenn<\/p>\n<p id=\"5SGhxx\">Roll Tide<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As part of the Tide\u2019s continuing evolution towards a more balanced roster, Nate Oats reeled in a tremendous transfer today with the signing of the WAC freshman of the year, Keitenn Bristow from Tarleton State.
