Impact Quinerly appears set for his second consecutive absence due to a medical issue, leaving the Crimson Tide down some major depth in the backcourt yet again. Look for John Petty to see more time on the ball as a result, while Keon Ellis and James Rojas saw the most notable minute increases with Quinerly sidelined Tuesday.

Ruled out against Florida Quinerly will not play Tuesday against Florida due to a medical condition, Cecil Hurt of The Tuscaloosa News reports.
Impact The writing on the wall suggests Quinerly's absence is related to COVID-19 protocol, though the school doesn't officially release medical information about its athletes due to privacy concerns. While Quinerly has been held out of the starting lineup in three of his last four games, he's still been one of Alabama's most important contributors off the bench, particularly at point guard. In his absence, John Petty and Jaden Shackelford could see more ball-handling duty, while Herb Jones has also been used as a point forward at times.

Alabama stuns No. 7 Tennessee 71-63 in physical battle

Not starting Saturday Quinerly is not in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against Tennessee.
Impact Saturday will be Quinerly's third time coming off the bench in the last four games as it appears head coach Nate Oats has shown a recent preference towards Josh Primo despite Quinerly's solid play. Quinerly should still see upwards of 20 minutes as he is one of the team's better all-around offensive players.

Leads Tide to victory with 24 Quinerly had a team-high 24 points (8-14 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 5-10 FT) to go along with five rebounds and a steal in Tuesday's 82-64 victory over Ole Miss.
Impact Quinerly still came off the bench in this contest for the second time in the last three games, but it didn't stop him from posting his first 20-point scoring effort with the Tide, which was also a career-high for the sophomore. He still did not record an assist in the contest, however, and paired with four turnovers, Quinerly is now dangerously close to a negative assist-to-turnover ratio. There have been some bumps early in his Alabama tenure, but Quinerly's SEC debut was certainly one of the bright spots.

Shackelford scores 26 as Alabama breaks away from ETSU 85-69
Jaden Shackelford drained a career-best eight 3-pointers, including five after halftime, and Alabama broke away from East Tennessee State 85-69DECEMBER 23, 2020 • ASSOCIATED PRESS
Six turnovers in bench role Quinerly had nine points (4-7 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 1-2 FT), three assists and six turnovers across 21 minutes off the bench in Saturday's loss to Western Kentucky.
Impact Quinerly came off the bench for the first time this year after six consecutive starts to begin the season, as coach Nate Oats was unimpressed with his defensive effort last week against Furman. Things didn't get much better Saturday, as he racked up as many turnovers as all of the other primary ball-handlers combined. Quinerly will have one more chance to prove himself Tuesday against ETSU before SEC play begins the following week.

Retreating to bench Saturday Quinerly was left out of the starting five for Saturday's game against Western Kentucky.
Impact Quinerly played a season-low 17 minutes in the Tide's last game against Furman after receiving critical comments from head coach Nate Oats on his defensive efforts. It seems as though Quinerly's lack of work on the defensive end will cost him his starting spot for the time being, but he should still see a healthy dose of minutes off the bench. James Rojas is receiving the start in his place.
DECEMBER 19, 2020 • ROTOWIRE
Limited due to defensive effort Quinerly was limited to just 17 minutes in Tuesday's 83-80 victory over Furman, collecting three points (1-2 FG, 1-1 3Pt) and three assists.
Impact According to Michael Casagrande of the Brimingham News, Quinerly didn't see the court much due to his defensive efforts. After the game, he drew criticism from coach Nate Oats for not closing hard enough, allowing the Paladins to have sustained success from beyond the arc. In Quinerly's place, backup point guard Joshua Primo saw 22 minutes of action, but down the stretch, it was forward Herb Jones doing quite a bit of the ball handling. It will certainly be interesting to see if Quinerly can redeem himself in another tough, non-conference game Saturday against Western Kentucky.

Fast start with Tide Quinerly had 18 points (7-12 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT) and three assists across 26 minutes in Wednesday's 81-57 victory over Jacksonville State.
Impact This was essentially a tune-up game for Quinerly and the Tide, but it's also our first look at the team's new starting point guard, as Quinerly had his waiver for immediate eligibility denied in 2019-20. The Villanova transfer was a highly-touted recruit, but never quite made it on the floor for significant run for the Wildcats. Now set to run point for the fast-paced, small-ball offense of head coach Nate Oats, the fantasy ceiling here is the highest it has ever been. This offense has room for a bunch of double-digit scorers, and Quinerly's usage in the opener suggests he's well on that path.
