Alabama Crimson Tide

Bonjour, Paris, and Viva la Tide!

Those were among some of the messages posted on social media on Wednesday after the Alabama men's basketball team arrived in France.

Paris is the final leg of the team's summer European trip, where the Crimson Tide will play two finals games before heading home. 

Next up, Alabama will face the Lithuania Men’s “B” National Team on Thursday.  

On Monday, freshman Brandon Miller scored a game-high 17 points and seven rebounds to lead six players in double-figures as Alabama cruised to a 108-64 victory over the Spain Select team in Barcelona.
