Grant Nelson - Shut out against South Carolina Nelson ended Tuesday's 74-47 win over South Carolina with zero points (0-3 FG, 0-2 3Pt), three rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal in 24 minutes.
Impact Nelson was held scoreless for the first time in an Alabama uniform and limited to single digits for just the fourth time this season. It's not as if the 6-11 senior wasn't tested in the non-conference portion of the schedule, but he certainly appears to be hitting a wall at one of the worst times possible. He'll have a chance to get back on track Saturday against Mississippi State.

Mark Sears - Scoring tear continues Sears chipped in 31 points (10-13 FG, 6-8 3Pt, 5-5 FT), six rebounds, three assists and three steals in 36 minutes during Tuesday's 74-47 victory over South Carolina.
Impact The majority of Sears' fantasy value comes from his scoring capability, but he's now chipped in a trio of both assists and steals in back-to-back games. Tuesday was also his second-best three-point shooting day of the season, as well as his second-highest rebounding total. It was a major boom for anyone who deployed Sears in rotisserie or daily formats, and Sears is quickly becoming one of the top fantasy assets in the SEC.
